That was a horrible intro. Dude so 20 00:01:06,560 --> 00:01:07,800 Speaker 2: bad it was terrible. 21 00:01:08,000 --> 00:01:09,600 Speaker 1: I'm just I'm matching the Mets energy. 22 00:01:09,680 --> 00:01:12,600 Speaker 2: Like this series against the Angels was just so like 23 00:01:13,400 --> 00:01:15,520 Speaker 2: it felt going through the motions and not like in 24 00:01:15,520 --> 00:01:18,120 Speaker 2: a negative ail like I don't think I think people. 25 00:01:17,840 --> 00:01:20,039 Speaker 1: Are pissed at the Mets more than they should be. 26 00:01:20,280 --> 00:01:24,320 Speaker 2: I think from a standpoint of like wins and losses, yes, bad, inexcusable. 27 00:01:24,319 --> 00:01:27,679 Speaker 2: This Angels team is horrendous. But I think like people were, like, 28 00:01:28,040 --> 00:01:30,560 Speaker 2: this team's dogging it. They're back to their old ways. 29 00:01:30,680 --> 00:01:32,760 Speaker 2: We didn't buy enough, we didn't do this. We should 30 00:01:32,760 --> 00:01:34,440 Speaker 2: have sold our start. Like, I feel like there's too 31 00:01:34,560 --> 00:01:38,479 Speaker 2: much noise over like in a vacuum. Lost, a bad 32 00:01:38,520 --> 00:01:41,680 Speaker 2: series overall doesn't really change how I feel about the 33 00:01:41,680 --> 00:01:44,080 Speaker 2: season whatsoever. And I think that's kind of how I 34 00:01:44,200 --> 00:01:47,720 Speaker 2: just feel about what happened. Was this sucks, Let's forget. 35 00:01:47,480 --> 00:01:48,000 Speaker 1: It and move on. 36 00:01:48,160 --> 00:01:51,320 Speaker 3: Almost Yeah, It's just it's so weird too to have 37 00:01:51,440 --> 00:01:53,520 Speaker 3: these massive road trips this entire month of August. The 38 00:01:53,520 --> 00:01:56,480 Speaker 3: fact that the Mets are going to California twice in August sucks. 39 00:01:56,480 --> 00:01:59,680 Speaker 3: The fact that we have this just weird West Coast 40 00:02:00,200 --> 00:02:03,040 Speaker 3: thing happening right now too, And it's just I don't know, 41 00:02:03,080 --> 00:02:05,000 Speaker 3: like this is the first series they lost since June thirtieth. 42 00:02:05,320 --> 00:02:06,960 Speaker 3: I can't even remember the last time the Mets lost 43 00:02:06,960 --> 00:02:08,760 Speaker 3: back to back one run games, and one run games 44 00:02:08,760 --> 00:02:11,280 Speaker 3: are kind of just fucking fluky anyway, It felt like 45 00:02:11,360 --> 00:02:12,840 Speaker 3: all three of these games they could have won, or 46 00:02:12,840 --> 00:02:14,280 Speaker 3: all three of these games they kind of could have 47 00:02:14,360 --> 00:02:16,200 Speaker 3: lost as well, So you come out with only one 48 00:02:16,240 --> 00:02:18,239 Speaker 3: of them. That kind of sucks. But it just kept 49 00:02:18,240 --> 00:02:19,799 Speaker 3: feeling like the Mets were going to find their way 50 00:02:19,800 --> 00:02:21,880 Speaker 3: to get a big hit on both Saturday and Sunday 51 00:02:22,080 --> 00:02:25,160 Speaker 3: and just never did, Like even when brows Ubon gives 52 00:02:25,200 --> 00:02:26,600 Speaker 3: up that at home runs and now though it's just 53 00:02:26,600 --> 00:02:27,959 Speaker 3: like all right, seventh inning, this has been kind of 54 00:02:27,960 --> 00:02:29,359 Speaker 3: a while back and forth game, like something else was 55 00:02:29,360 --> 00:02:31,360 Speaker 3: gonna happen. There's no way this game ends its exact score, 56 00:02:31,520 --> 00:02:33,720 Speaker 3: and that game didn't with that stat exact score. Same 57 00:02:33,720 --> 00:02:35,480 Speaker 3: thing on Sunday where it's like all right, chip away, 58 00:02:35,560 --> 00:02:37,520 Speaker 3: chip away, men on base, men on base, just no one. 59 00:02:37,919 --> 00:02:39,360 Speaker 3: They felt like this was the first time in the 60 00:02:39,400 --> 00:02:41,040 Speaker 3: last couple of months no one was able to get 61 00:02:41,040 --> 00:02:42,200 Speaker 3: a big hit, and that was frustrating. 62 00:02:42,320 --> 00:02:44,960 Speaker 1: Yeah, they couldn't catch a break like even Lindor. 63 00:02:45,080 --> 00:02:47,239 Speaker 3: No, they caught some breaks. The Angels made a bunch 64 00:02:47,280 --> 00:02:47,640 Speaker 3: of errors. 65 00:02:48,040 --> 00:02:50,000 Speaker 2: No, but I'm saying from the same point of like 66 00:02:50,080 --> 00:02:52,639 Speaker 2: Lindor hit that foul ball home run today, like that 67 00:02:52,680 --> 00:02:56,200 Speaker 2: one was like, oh, like annoying. We got the Grand 68 00:02:56,200 --> 00:02:58,800 Speaker 2: Slam last night or the two nights ago from JD 69 00:02:59,120 --> 00:03:02,160 Speaker 2: on Saturday, and then watchcar bros Bon simply just gave 70 00:03:02,160 --> 00:03:04,880 Speaker 2: it right back, Like I have. 71 00:03:04,880 --> 00:03:06,560 Speaker 3: A trivita question for you. Oh hit me all right, 72 00:03:06,680 --> 00:03:08,200 Speaker 3: I said on the broadcast today. But I know that 73 00:03:08,240 --> 00:03:09,760 Speaker 3: you were in a because you were at the Yankee game. 74 00:03:10,240 --> 00:03:12,399 Speaker 3: JJ Martinez hit that Grand Slam on Saturday, had second 75 00:03:12,400 --> 00:03:14,720 Speaker 3: Grand Slam of the season. Remember the last met that 76 00:03:14,800 --> 00:03:16,160 Speaker 3: hit two Grand Slams in one season. 77 00:03:16,200 --> 00:03:18,520 Speaker 1: I'm gonna go Scott Harriston, No, but. 78 00:03:18,480 --> 00:03:20,440 Speaker 3: You're in the right idea. You're in the right mar 79 00:03:20,520 --> 00:03:23,280 Speaker 3: Layte Bird, you're in the right phasey years right there. 80 00:03:23,360 --> 00:03:24,320 Speaker 1: Maright Anderson. 81 00:03:24,600 --> 00:03:29,480 Speaker 3: No, you're circling it. You're close. Jason Bay No, No, 82 00:03:29,600 --> 00:03:31,600 Speaker 3: come on, Jason Bay. Here's a fun one too. I 83 00:03:31,639 --> 00:03:34,280 Speaker 3: got from the Pirates broadcast today. Or answer this trivia question. 84 00:03:34,520 --> 00:03:36,280 Speaker 3: He's the only Pirates to ever win Rookie of the Year, 85 00:03:36,560 --> 00:03:39,160 Speaker 3: and which is weird because Ralph Kinner should have won. 86 00:03:39,200 --> 00:03:40,480 Speaker 3: I think it was forty six, but they didn't even 87 00:03:40,720 --> 00:03:43,120 Speaker 3: started the Rookie of the Year until Jackie Robinson his 88 00:03:43,160 --> 00:03:45,480 Speaker 3: rookie year. Whoa, that was the first ever Rookie of 89 00:03:45,520 --> 00:03:45,760 Speaker 3: the Year. 90 00:03:45,800 --> 00:03:47,000 Speaker 1: I did not know. That's pretty cool. 91 00:03:47,000 --> 00:03:48,560 Speaker 3: I didn't know either, But in fact, shout out the 92 00:03:48,600 --> 00:03:51,480 Speaker 3: Pirates broadcast. Fucking love the Pirates broadcast. I'm watching so 93 00:03:51,520 --> 00:03:53,920 Speaker 3: many Pirates games lately. It back to the Mets. Actually, 94 00:03:53,920 --> 00:03:54,720 Speaker 3: we'll talk about it later. 95 00:03:55,400 --> 00:03:58,720 Speaker 2: I was in the right what's the position, uh outfield 96 00:03:58,920 --> 00:04:02,520 Speaker 2: outfield hm with the Mets outfield. Yeah, but from that 97 00:04:02,680 --> 00:04:05,880 Speaker 2: time period, right, yeah, shetfield. I'll tell you the year 98 00:04:05,880 --> 00:04:08,320 Speaker 2: two thousand and nine, two thousand and nine. And this 99 00:04:08,360 --> 00:04:11,600 Speaker 2: guy's also famous for Grand slams. Famous for Grand slams. 100 00:04:12,360 --> 00:04:14,080 Speaker 2: I mean Robin Ventura is like the famous guy. 101 00:04:14,120 --> 00:04:19,200 Speaker 3: Now, this guy's probably has yes, now, yeah, for Grand slams. 102 00:04:19,200 --> 00:04:22,240 Speaker 3: Most notable slams ever, But crazy that JJ Martin is 103 00:04:22,279 --> 00:04:23,880 Speaker 3: the first Met to have two Grand Slams a season 104 00:04:24,160 --> 00:04:25,720 Speaker 3: fifteen full calendar. 105 00:04:25,440 --> 00:04:27,680 Speaker 2: Years, especially with a guy named Pete Alonso has been 106 00:04:27,720 --> 00:04:30,200 Speaker 2: hitting forty home runs a year. Like he hasn't two 107 00:04:30,200 --> 00:04:31,600 Speaker 2: Grand Slams in one season. 108 00:04:31,839 --> 00:04:33,640 Speaker 3: He gets too nervous and the bases are loaded, He's 109 00:04:33,640 --> 00:04:35,560 Speaker 3: not hit many Grand slams. A little scared. It's like, 110 00:04:35,680 --> 00:04:38,280 Speaker 3: I gotta do everything well right now. But even Pete 111 00:04:38,279 --> 00:04:40,080 Speaker 3: actually had a good series. He finally looks like he's 112 00:04:40,080 --> 00:04:42,000 Speaker 3: swinging the bat well. People are still being critical of him, 113 00:04:42,040 --> 00:04:44,400 Speaker 3: but it's very clear. I think that he has turned 114 00:04:44,400 --> 00:04:46,120 Speaker 3: the page. Same with Brandon Nemo. He had three hits 115 00:04:46,120 --> 00:04:47,720 Speaker 3: in Game one, He's on base a few more times 116 00:04:47,720 --> 00:04:50,160 Speaker 3: Games two and three, Lindor's back to being fine. He 117 00:04:50,160 --> 00:04:51,719 Speaker 3: should have had another extra base in this series, but 118 00:04:51,760 --> 00:04:54,080 Speaker 3: Kevin Plarer made the catch of the Year and Saturday. 119 00:04:54,080 --> 00:04:56,520 Speaker 3: I will never have nothing but love for Kevin Plarr 120 00:04:56,560 --> 00:04:57,720 Speaker 3: the rest of my life. But don't like to see 121 00:04:57,800 --> 00:05:00,400 Speaker 3: him doing that against the Mets. It's just it's just 122 00:05:00,440 --> 00:05:03,320 Speaker 3: such a grown series because everything was kind of close. 123 00:05:04,120 --> 00:05:05,640 Speaker 3: It just felt like there wasn't a lot of energy. 124 00:05:05,640 --> 00:05:07,400 Speaker 3: That weren't really good vibes, Like there was no thing, 125 00:05:07,480 --> 00:05:09,800 Speaker 3: Like there was no fucking galvanizing like moment. Like I 126 00:05:09,800 --> 00:05:11,560 Speaker 3: think the Mets now are in the spot in the 127 00:05:11,560 --> 00:05:13,960 Speaker 3: season where we might just need another thing. Yeah, like 128 00:05:14,279 --> 00:05:17,400 Speaker 3: Grimaces faded, Pride Month is over. That dog was fun 129 00:05:17,440 --> 00:05:19,719 Speaker 3: for a little while, Like we yeah, we need we 130 00:05:19,760 --> 00:05:21,960 Speaker 3: need some stupid to happen again. We need to find 131 00:05:21,960 --> 00:05:24,240 Speaker 3: some kind of dumb maskots something the OMG is faded to. 132 00:05:24,520 --> 00:05:26,479 Speaker 3: We need to find something to rally around because this 133 00:05:26,520 --> 00:05:28,720 Speaker 3: month is going to be long. Yeah, we have we 134 00:05:28,800 --> 00:05:30,600 Speaker 3: have two separate trips again to California and then that 135 00:05:30,720 --> 00:05:32,599 Speaker 3: this one is fine, this is a good warm up 136 00:05:32,640 --> 00:05:34,960 Speaker 3: road trip. The next road trip the Mets have it's 137 00:05:35,000 --> 00:05:37,360 Speaker 3: four in San Diego, three in Arizona. That road trip 138 00:05:37,360 --> 00:05:40,479 Speaker 3: will literally dictate if we make the playoffs or not, 139 00:05:40,480 --> 00:05:43,280 Speaker 3: almost entirely truthfully. And so it's like this is this 140 00:05:43,400 --> 00:05:45,040 Speaker 3: is a moment where we have these games now, then 141 00:05:45,040 --> 00:05:46,839 Speaker 3: we have some easy ones at home series against the 142 00:05:46,920 --> 00:05:48,440 Speaker 3: Orioles and then head out to a road trip that 143 00:05:48,480 --> 00:05:50,440 Speaker 3: will define the season. So it's just they need to 144 00:05:50,480 --> 00:05:52,640 Speaker 3: find a spark. And again I'm not saying this is like, 145 00:05:52,720 --> 00:05:55,680 Speaker 3: oh my god, Sondy alarms the Chips. We just need 146 00:05:55,720 --> 00:05:57,040 Speaker 3: they need I don't know, it just seems like they 147 00:05:57,080 --> 00:05:58,120 Speaker 3: need to like get spun around a. 148 00:05:58,080 --> 00:06:00,080 Speaker 1: Little bit and like get this manager back. I hate that. 149 00:06:00,120 --> 00:06:01,960 Speaker 2: I feel like we're back with the Mets here. We're 150 00:06:01,960 --> 00:06:04,760 Speaker 2: like there's everyone everyone in the world is like mad 151 00:06:04,920 --> 00:06:06,400 Speaker 2: at the Mets right now, and me and you were 152 00:06:06,480 --> 00:06:07,400 Speaker 2: just that mad. 153 00:06:07,680 --> 00:06:11,600 Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm I'm disappointed for sure. 154 00:06:11,680 --> 00:06:13,640 Speaker 3: Yeah, there's like I don't know, at least this is 155 00:06:13,640 --> 00:06:15,520 Speaker 3: like there's some real authenticity behind this, Like yeah, like 156 00:06:15,520 --> 00:06:17,440 Speaker 3: this is kind of annoying, like I thought. Mendoz also 157 00:06:17,480 --> 00:06:19,480 Speaker 3: said a lot of cool things about like having a 158 00:06:19,520 --> 00:06:21,479 Speaker 3: road trip this late in the season, He's like, really 159 00:06:21,480 --> 00:06:22,680 Speaker 3: good chance for all of us to get to know 160 00:06:22,720 --> 00:06:25,159 Speaker 3: each other. Ronnie also made a comment on Friday that 161 00:06:25,200 --> 00:06:26,880 Speaker 3: he was around the team when they're doing some cage 162 00:06:26,880 --> 00:06:30,080 Speaker 3: work their first day in Anaheim, and he was like 163 00:06:30,240 --> 00:06:32,159 Speaker 3: all business. I don't remember a Mets team like this. 164 00:06:32,680 --> 00:06:34,680 Speaker 3: Everyone was focused on hitting, and all they were talking 165 00:06:34,680 --> 00:06:36,919 Speaker 3: about in between hit their reps were just hitting. 166 00:06:36,960 --> 00:06:38,400 Speaker 1: So that's it's all. 167 00:06:38,640 --> 00:06:40,320 Speaker 3: It all just feels good. And it's just the fact 168 00:06:40,320 --> 00:06:42,920 Speaker 3: that the fucking Padres and Diamacks had to get smoking hot. 169 00:06:43,120 --> 00:06:45,120 Speaker 3: That's the real problem. Those two teams are eight and 170 00:06:45,120 --> 00:06:46,560 Speaker 3: two in their last ten. We're five and five and 171 00:06:46,560 --> 00:06:48,240 Speaker 3: now we've dropped out of the wildcard spot if the 172 00:06:48,279 --> 00:06:50,000 Speaker 3: Mets had lost the series, but they still have a 173 00:06:50,040 --> 00:06:52,400 Speaker 3: playoff spot on August fourth, August fifth, When you guys, 174 00:06:52,400 --> 00:06:53,800 Speaker 3: listen to it. People want to give a shit, but 175 00:06:53,839 --> 00:06:56,360 Speaker 3: like that screenshot of the standings that makes people nervous, 176 00:06:56,360 --> 00:06:57,800 Speaker 3: that kills the vibel otle. But and I was like, 177 00:06:57,960 --> 00:06:59,640 Speaker 3: maybe you kind of should it. It's true. 178 00:07:00,080 --> 00:07:04,640 Speaker 2: I think what's weird about what happened with this team 179 00:07:04,720 --> 00:07:07,560 Speaker 2: is just the fact that like they just kind of lost, 180 00:07:07,920 --> 00:07:10,400 Speaker 2: like they there wasn't like anything in particular win. 181 00:07:10,680 --> 00:07:11,560 Speaker 1: Yeah, where you're like. 182 00:07:11,880 --> 00:07:13,960 Speaker 2: This was a fuck up, this is this is what 183 00:07:14,040 --> 00:07:15,440 Speaker 2: caused it, this is it. It was just like, oh, 184 00:07:15,440 --> 00:07:17,880 Speaker 2: we just lost baseball games because we didn't play better 185 00:07:18,200 --> 00:07:20,640 Speaker 2: than the Angels, and that part is frustrating. But also 186 00:07:20,680 --> 00:07:23,360 Speaker 2: in the same time, I have a hard time getting 187 00:07:23,600 --> 00:07:26,280 Speaker 2: as upset maybe as other people right now because think 188 00:07:26,280 --> 00:07:28,840 Speaker 2: of some of the bullshit games that we've won, like 189 00:07:28,920 --> 00:07:31,360 Speaker 2: throughout this year. Just think about again, think about where 190 00:07:31,400 --> 00:07:35,240 Speaker 2: we were two months ago. Even like I will the 191 00:07:35,320 --> 00:07:38,800 Speaker 2: fact that this series happened sucked, I'm not gonna scream 192 00:07:38,800 --> 00:07:42,240 Speaker 2: and yell. I think we'veould, we've confirmed that we're just 193 00:07:42,280 --> 00:07:44,280 Speaker 2: not happy with how it went, but we're not like mad, 194 00:07:45,960 --> 00:07:48,360 Speaker 2: look look forward, look past. It got a big game 195 00:07:48,360 --> 00:07:50,640 Speaker 2: against the Cardinals, like on Monday, Like that game is huge, 196 00:07:50,680 --> 00:07:52,960 Speaker 2: and then Colarado and like beat the piss out of 197 00:07:52,960 --> 00:07:55,880 Speaker 2: the Rockies, please, like take advantage of it. 198 00:07:55,880 --> 00:07:57,720 Speaker 1: It just this weekend. 199 00:07:57,840 --> 00:08:00,440 Speaker 2: I'm maybe I'll say this, maybe this was a little 200 00:08:00,440 --> 00:08:02,080 Speaker 2: bit of looking past the Angels a little bit by 201 00:08:02,120 --> 00:08:03,760 Speaker 2: the team. Maybe that's the only thing that could have happened, 202 00:08:03,840 --> 00:08:05,880 Speaker 2: is you have this big game against the Cardinals that 203 00:08:05,920 --> 00:08:06,800 Speaker 2: you probably. 204 00:08:06,480 --> 00:08:08,320 Speaker 3: Were like, this is a chaos game. This is a 205 00:08:08,400 --> 00:08:08,960 Speaker 3: chaos game. 206 00:08:09,000 --> 00:08:10,640 Speaker 2: This is a big one that we go to Colorado, 207 00:08:10,880 --> 00:08:12,760 Speaker 2: maybe just to look past the Angels a little bit 208 00:08:12,760 --> 00:08:15,560 Speaker 2: more than you should have. I mean, they stink. They're 209 00:08:15,600 --> 00:08:18,200 Speaker 2: really bad. They didn't hard good baseball. They made bad 210 00:08:18,560 --> 00:08:21,080 Speaker 2: three errors in every single game. I think it's shocking 211 00:08:21,640 --> 00:08:24,680 Speaker 2: how bad they make. Some of the most bizarre errors 212 00:08:24,720 --> 00:08:28,800 Speaker 2: I've ever seen. Nolan Shanuell dropped the ball on a throw, 213 00:08:28,880 --> 00:08:31,840 Speaker 2: which was crazy, and Zach Netto made some horribles and 214 00:08:32,240 --> 00:08:34,960 Speaker 2: batched a couple ground balls like weird stuff was happening. 215 00:08:35,000 --> 00:08:37,559 Speaker 2: They just couldn't capitalize. And then of course the Angels pitching, 216 00:08:37,559 --> 00:08:40,319 Speaker 2: which has been dog shit all year, just lights out 217 00:08:40,360 --> 00:08:41,480 Speaker 2: bullpen all of a sudden. 218 00:08:41,960 --> 00:08:43,880 Speaker 3: There's also so many moments where we just miss pitches 219 00:08:43,920 --> 00:08:45,880 Speaker 3: like there was the bad for Pete with two men on. 220 00:08:45,920 --> 00:08:47,840 Speaker 3: I think it was the sixth inning on Sunday where 221 00:08:48,320 --> 00:08:50,319 Speaker 3: first pitch he jumped on it from I think it 222 00:08:50,360 --> 00:08:53,000 Speaker 3: was still Griffin Canning right after raw Washington came out 223 00:08:53,000 --> 00:08:54,640 Speaker 3: to like talk to him, be like, hey, he was 224 00:08:54,679 --> 00:08:57,079 Speaker 3: just floathing some breaking balls. I got by guy's heads 225 00:08:57,600 --> 00:08:59,120 Speaker 3: and his pitch down the middle. He just missed it. 226 00:08:59,120 --> 00:09:00,880 Speaker 3: He knew he missed it. He almost did the break 227 00:09:00,880 --> 00:09:02,320 Speaker 3: back and his nathing and the like while he was 228 00:09:02,360 --> 00:09:05,400 Speaker 3: running to first base. I'm saying, like, just I don't know. 229 00:09:05,440 --> 00:09:07,240 Speaker 3: Maybe the off day kind of psyched them all out, 230 00:09:07,080 --> 00:09:09,520 Speaker 3: got them out of their zone. Also, I think we 231 00:09:09,600 --> 00:09:11,320 Speaker 3: might have very different timelines because I don't I didn't 232 00:09:11,360 --> 00:09:13,040 Speaker 3: see people really being that mad at all. I don't think. 233 00:09:13,559 --> 00:09:15,480 Speaker 3: I don't think the Mets elector is that mad. I 234 00:09:15,480 --> 00:09:17,200 Speaker 3: think the Mets e lecturers. Similarly, the US is like 235 00:09:17,280 --> 00:09:20,240 Speaker 3: kind of sullen and disappointed because like, it's just a 236 00:09:20,240 --> 00:09:22,600 Speaker 3: team that sucks, and maybe we just got too used 237 00:09:22,600 --> 00:09:24,440 Speaker 3: to winning these series. We haven't lost a series in 238 00:09:24,480 --> 00:09:26,680 Speaker 3: five weeks like this. It's been a long time since 239 00:09:26,679 --> 00:09:28,400 Speaker 3: the Astros won the end of June, so It's just 240 00:09:29,040 --> 00:09:31,880 Speaker 3: it's strange especially after we even before the Astros won, 241 00:09:31,920 --> 00:09:34,080 Speaker 3: I think we'd won or tied like seven or eight 242 00:09:34,160 --> 00:09:36,240 Speaker 3: series before that, So it's only the second series the 243 00:09:36,240 --> 00:09:39,760 Speaker 3: Mets have lost basically since June began. It's for good, Yeah, 244 00:09:39,760 --> 00:09:41,320 Speaker 3: it's good. So it's just you're gonna lose. Some games 245 00:09:41,320 --> 00:09:42,920 Speaker 3: are supposed to win. You're gonna win. Some games supposed 246 00:09:42,960 --> 00:09:44,160 Speaker 3: to lose. But you did felt like there was a 247 00:09:44,240 --> 00:09:46,719 Speaker 3: chance to have a moment towards the end of the game, 248 00:09:46,800 --> 00:09:49,600 Speaker 3: especially on Sunday, where you can kind of lock yourselves 249 00:09:49,600 --> 00:09:50,920 Speaker 3: in and be like, all right, the good vibes are 250 00:09:51,000 --> 00:09:53,040 Speaker 3: still here. We are a playoff team, like, let's do 251 00:09:53,080 --> 00:09:55,080 Speaker 3: the things that we do, but just didn't materialize. 252 00:09:55,160 --> 00:09:56,760 Speaker 1: And again, I think you did say perfectly. 253 00:09:56,920 --> 00:09:59,360 Speaker 2: The fact that the Mets technically dropped out of the 254 00:09:59,360 --> 00:10:03,480 Speaker 2: playoffs is weekend was probably the biggest determining factor as 255 00:10:03,480 --> 00:10:05,800 Speaker 2: to why people may be feeling frustrated and upset, even 256 00:10:05,840 --> 00:10:09,319 Speaker 2: though we know there is still so much baseball left 257 00:10:09,360 --> 00:10:12,000 Speaker 2: and being in the wild card today doesn't mean anything 258 00:10:12,160 --> 00:10:14,920 Speaker 2: like it might feel better than it does right now, 259 00:10:14,960 --> 00:10:16,839 Speaker 2: but all I simply care about is being in the 260 00:10:16,840 --> 00:10:19,040 Speaker 2: wildcard at the end of the year making the playoffs. 261 00:10:19,240 --> 00:10:20,880 Speaker 2: If that means that we're not in the wildcard on 262 00:10:20,920 --> 00:10:22,559 Speaker 2: August fourth, but we're there at the end of the year, 263 00:10:22,559 --> 00:10:23,720 Speaker 2: I simply don't care. 264 00:10:24,280 --> 00:10:27,080 Speaker 3: This is the second series the Mets have lost since 265 00:10:28,080 --> 00:10:33,280 Speaker 3: June began. Wow may no, actually no, no, actually incorrect. 266 00:10:33,320 --> 00:10:35,200 Speaker 3: That was the split with the Diabacks four games split. 267 00:10:35,559 --> 00:10:38,040 Speaker 3: So the last series the Mets lost for the Astros, 268 00:10:38,160 --> 00:10:40,000 Speaker 3: you know, the second and last series the Mets loss. 269 00:10:39,880 --> 00:10:42,200 Speaker 1: Was I don't poor he Lopez. 270 00:10:42,440 --> 00:10:45,320 Speaker 3: Oh, Dodgers, that was the second last series the Mets lost. 271 00:10:45,480 --> 00:10:46,760 Speaker 1: Oh my god. 272 00:10:47,000 --> 00:10:50,240 Speaker 3: So again just think thinking about oh yeah, everyone's been 273 00:10:50,280 --> 00:10:52,080 Speaker 3: split their win So just thinking about that for a second, 274 00:10:52,120 --> 00:10:54,760 Speaker 3: putting into perspective, how could these last two months have 275 00:10:54,800 --> 00:10:57,960 Speaker 3: been not getting complacent, not saying this is okay because 276 00:10:57,960 --> 00:10:59,160 Speaker 3: we are not in the playoffs right now, and the 277 00:10:59,160 --> 00:11:01,920 Speaker 3: Diamondbacks are fun, fucking Heather and they're good. The Padres 278 00:11:01,920 --> 00:11:03,280 Speaker 3: aren't Heather and they're fucking good. 279 00:11:04,320 --> 00:11:04,640 Speaker 1: It's good. 280 00:11:04,679 --> 00:11:06,120 Speaker 3: It's gonna take a lot to make the playoffs because 281 00:11:06,200 --> 00:11:08,160 Speaker 3: now we're kind of the water and the oil are 282 00:11:08,240 --> 00:11:09,520 Speaker 3: kind of starting to separate a little bit. In the 283 00:11:09,559 --> 00:11:12,120 Speaker 3: National League, the Pirates and Cardinals aren't playing as well. 284 00:11:12,160 --> 00:11:14,080 Speaker 3: We're not really playing as well. And those other three teams, 285 00:11:14,120 --> 00:11:17,120 Speaker 3: including the Braves, Padres Dyingbacks, were all playing very well. 286 00:11:17,679 --> 00:11:19,320 Speaker 3: So it's gonna it's it's gonna be a dog fight. 287 00:11:19,320 --> 00:11:20,800 Speaker 3: I mean, the Braves also just lost two games row 288 00:11:20,800 --> 00:11:22,720 Speaker 3: the Marlins. Like, I don't think their fans are jumping 289 00:11:22,760 --> 00:11:25,040 Speaker 3: off jumping off buildings like you say some mess fans are, 290 00:11:25,120 --> 00:11:26,360 Speaker 3: but I still don't believe you that much. 291 00:11:26,520 --> 00:11:29,560 Speaker 2: I feel like I'm getting DMS and messages from people 292 00:11:29,600 --> 00:11:30,840 Speaker 2: being like, you're gonna yell today. 293 00:11:30,840 --> 00:11:33,160 Speaker 1: I'm like, no, I'm not. I'm not. I'm not gonna 294 00:11:33,200 --> 00:11:34,760 Speaker 1: be yelling, like I'm just yell about. 295 00:11:34,800 --> 00:11:36,600 Speaker 3: Like the only thing that was really fucked was the 296 00:11:36,600 --> 00:11:38,640 Speaker 3: Brazobomb pitch to ne though it was just a long 297 00:11:38,679 --> 00:11:41,199 Speaker 3: at bat. Braza Bon just hung a color down the 298 00:11:41,240 --> 00:11:42,760 Speaker 3: middle and then they'll just hit that. It was just 299 00:11:42,840 --> 00:11:46,080 Speaker 3: pretty decent hither and people were turning on Braza Bon already. 300 00:11:45,960 --> 00:11:49,240 Speaker 2: Which also we talked about this last night at at 301 00:11:49,240 --> 00:11:50,960 Speaker 2: our favorite bar of ours. Do I do I mention 302 00:11:50,960 --> 00:11:52,640 Speaker 2: the name or do we keep that a secret? J 303 00:11:52,760 --> 00:11:55,320 Speaker 2: D's j D's j D's you guys know, if you 304 00:11:55,360 --> 00:11:57,080 Speaker 2: know what you know it. If you don't good, we 305 00:11:57,120 --> 00:11:57,760 Speaker 2: get free drinks. 306 00:11:57,760 --> 00:12:01,080 Speaker 1: Shout out. Uh. We're talking about this at JD's. 307 00:12:01,120 --> 00:12:05,079 Speaker 2: We're like Mets fans with Wascar bros Oban like this 308 00:12:05,200 --> 00:12:07,400 Speaker 2: is this is just a dude who's a pitcher. And 309 00:12:07,440 --> 00:12:09,920 Speaker 2: I think the fact that he was traded for makes 310 00:12:09,960 --> 00:12:12,360 Speaker 2: people think that like he's supposed to be like this 311 00:12:12,520 --> 00:12:15,040 Speaker 2: great reliever and he's he's gonna be getting these big 312 00:12:15,040 --> 00:12:17,640 Speaker 2: outs down the stretch and this, and that he's thirty 313 00:12:17,640 --> 00:12:19,920 Speaker 2: four years old, he's he's a free player. We gave 314 00:12:20,000 --> 00:12:22,480 Speaker 2: up a nothing, minor league prospect for him. He could 315 00:12:22,480 --> 00:12:24,360 Speaker 2: be cut in two weeks and you wouldn't you wouldn't 316 00:12:24,360 --> 00:12:27,160 Speaker 2: even flinch. He might be able to be sent down. Yeah, 317 00:12:27,200 --> 00:12:28,800 Speaker 2: he actually has option. Yeah, that was a mazing like 318 00:12:28,840 --> 00:12:31,920 Speaker 2: we did trade for him. And I think that's sometimes 319 00:12:31,960 --> 00:12:36,400 Speaker 2: where maybe as content people probably like whatever, we all 320 00:12:36,400 --> 00:12:37,679 Speaker 2: have to do a better job of like, hey, like 321 00:12:37,800 --> 00:12:38,360 Speaker 2: Wascar bros. 322 00:12:38,400 --> 00:12:40,880 Speaker 1: Obon isn't the fix, Like he's just another reliever. 323 00:12:41,760 --> 00:12:45,760 Speaker 2: Don't don't expect him to be, you know, twenty fifteen 324 00:12:45,840 --> 00:12:46,839 Speaker 2: Jerry's familia. 325 00:12:46,920 --> 00:12:48,800 Speaker 3: Okay, But on the flip side of that, his first 326 00:12:48,800 --> 00:12:50,760 Speaker 3: appearing appearance with the team. The Mets did use him 327 00:12:50,760 --> 00:12:52,440 Speaker 3: in a medium too high leverage spot. 328 00:12:52,559 --> 00:12:54,480 Speaker 2: No, for sure, I'm not saying I'm not saying that 329 00:12:54,520 --> 00:12:55,920 Speaker 2: like they're not gonna use him in that. But I 330 00:12:55,920 --> 00:12:57,960 Speaker 2: think at the same time, that's more of a product 331 00:12:58,000 --> 00:13:00,440 Speaker 2: of what this bullpen is, which is very fa which 332 00:13:00,480 --> 00:13:02,600 Speaker 2: is something that we do like that all these film 333 00:13:02,640 --> 00:13:04,840 Speaker 2: Aton's getting the biggest outs right now for the crime 334 00:13:05,120 --> 00:13:07,560 Speaker 2: looks awesome. Yeah, he looks fantastic. So I think you're 335 00:13:07,600 --> 00:13:09,400 Speaker 2: gonna ride the hot hand. You're gonna go with who's good, 336 00:13:09,440 --> 00:13:10,440 Speaker 2: who's not at the time. 337 00:13:10,559 --> 00:13:10,959 Speaker 1: Whatever. 338 00:13:11,480 --> 00:13:13,440 Speaker 2: Overall, I think we all got to take a little 339 00:13:13,520 --> 00:13:17,000 Speaker 2: little step back from Wasscar brasobad from what it was, 340 00:13:17,160 --> 00:13:18,880 Speaker 2: especially because most people didn't even know he was thirty 341 00:13:18,920 --> 00:13:20,000 Speaker 2: four when the Mets trade for him. 342 00:13:20,000 --> 00:13:20,680 Speaker 1: They had no clue. 343 00:13:21,120 --> 00:13:23,000 Speaker 3: Yeah, I think I think it's also a function of 344 00:13:23,080 --> 00:13:27,920 Speaker 3: maybe Carass Mendoza learning had also used Wasscar browsubond like, 345 00:13:27,960 --> 00:13:29,840 Speaker 3: not like in leverage, but that when he gave up 346 00:13:29,840 --> 00:13:31,320 Speaker 3: the home at Nether I think it was thirty sixth 347 00:13:31,320 --> 00:13:33,360 Speaker 3: pitch of the thing. Yeah, and the Angels had Nicolon 348 00:13:33,400 --> 00:13:34,640 Speaker 3: died him for a few hits and there was some 349 00:13:34,679 --> 00:13:36,800 Speaker 3: long at bats bras Ubond's thing. He doesn't really have. 350 00:13:38,040 --> 00:13:40,240 Speaker 3: I want to see he doesn't have a putaway pitch 351 00:13:40,360 --> 00:13:42,200 Speaker 3: because he is a good pitcher. He does strike a 352 00:13:42,200 --> 00:13:44,760 Speaker 3: lot of guys out, but it's not it's like the 353 00:13:44,800 --> 00:13:47,080 Speaker 3: cover is the primary and then he uses the change up. 354 00:13:47,120 --> 00:13:48,679 Speaker 3: They can't use the change up really against everybody, so 355 00:13:48,679 --> 00:13:49,839 Speaker 3: and he winds up using a lot of sinkers and 356 00:13:49,880 --> 00:13:52,680 Speaker 3: four steamers. He's just not He gets strikeouts kind of 357 00:13:52,720 --> 00:13:54,520 Speaker 3: just by mixing all of his pitches, not really like, oh, 358 00:13:54,559 --> 00:13:57,720 Speaker 3: here is my here is my devastating chest. Yeah, not 359 00:13:57,720 --> 00:14:00,120 Speaker 3: a big chase guy. So it becomes a situation and 360 00:14:00,240 --> 00:14:03,920 Speaker 3: where if the ball is being played that much, I 361 00:14:03,920 --> 00:14:05,840 Speaker 3: don't know, like maybe maybe then it's even I know, 362 00:14:05,880 --> 00:14:07,079 Speaker 3: like you don't want to take out the righty for 363 00:14:07,120 --> 00:14:09,520 Speaker 3: a riety putting another ridy. But in that situation it 364 00:14:09,559 --> 00:14:12,280 Speaker 3: felt like that wasn't the best at bad for Browselebon either. 365 00:14:12,320 --> 00:14:14,240 Speaker 3: And also I don't think he's thrown multiplely anything to 366 00:14:14,320 --> 00:14:16,800 Speaker 3: that much. He does it sometimes, he used to do. 367 00:14:16,720 --> 00:14:18,280 Speaker 1: It when he first was with the Marlins. I don't 368 00:14:18,280 --> 00:14:19,160 Speaker 1: know what he's done this year. 369 00:14:19,480 --> 00:14:21,320 Speaker 3: He's done a few this year, less in the last 370 00:14:21,320 --> 00:14:24,240 Speaker 3: few weeks, but much more so earlier in the season. 371 00:14:24,280 --> 00:14:26,280 Speaker 3: So I guess something he has. But again, thirty six pitches. 372 00:14:26,320 --> 00:14:28,520 Speaker 3: Remember we've talked about pitch to k with las Brazowski 373 00:14:28,520 --> 00:14:30,000 Speaker 3: a lot, So he kept throwing a lot of colors 374 00:14:30,000 --> 00:14:32,760 Speaker 3: in that bad and his command wasn't the sharpest either, 375 00:14:32,760 --> 00:14:34,240 Speaker 3: and he just he just left one right over the middle. 376 00:14:34,280 --> 00:14:38,440 Speaker 2: And then also he's gonna give up hits, he's gonna runs. Yeah, 377 00:14:38,480 --> 00:14:40,120 Speaker 2: he's not a lights out, shut down reliever. He's having 378 00:14:40,120 --> 00:14:43,200 Speaker 2: a very good season, but he's not like Woscar Browsubon 379 00:14:43,280 --> 00:14:45,120 Speaker 2: isn't like this saved their bullpen. He was like, oh, 380 00:14:45,120 --> 00:14:46,840 Speaker 2: this is one of the pieces to how we remade 381 00:14:46,840 --> 00:14:49,200 Speaker 2: our bullpen. He's not We didn't trade for Jason Adam 382 00:14:49,200 --> 00:14:50,960 Speaker 2: where you'd be like, this guy needs to be getting 383 00:14:51,000 --> 00:14:52,800 Speaker 2: these massive outs Tanner Scott. 384 00:14:52,880 --> 00:14:55,360 Speaker 3: Yeah, he's just pitching in these spots because we don't 385 00:14:55,360 --> 00:14:57,080 Speaker 3: really have any options pitching those spots right now. But 386 00:14:57,080 --> 00:14:58,960 Speaker 3: if this was a very good bullpen, he wouldn't be 387 00:14:59,000 --> 00:15:01,600 Speaker 3: getting the big set and dting outs and in a close. 388 00:15:01,400 --> 00:15:03,560 Speaker 2: Game correct, and he's got control and he's cheap. It 389 00:15:03,640 --> 00:15:05,280 Speaker 2: was like a no brainer for David Starts to make 390 00:15:05,280 --> 00:15:07,560 Speaker 2: oh free reliever, got him take him all day. 391 00:15:07,600 --> 00:15:09,440 Speaker 3: It was it was more like a transaction than it 392 00:15:09,520 --> 00:15:11,280 Speaker 3: was like a big trade. If you can see what 393 00:15:11,280 --> 00:15:12,840 Speaker 3: I'm saying by a different things, I don't know. It's 394 00:15:12,880 --> 00:15:14,920 Speaker 3: just and again like okay, sure he gets up through 395 00:15:14,920 --> 00:15:16,920 Speaker 3: a home run, you still you still had three innings 396 00:15:16,920 --> 00:15:19,840 Speaker 3: to beat, two innings to score in the Angels, and 397 00:15:19,960 --> 00:15:23,560 Speaker 3: which that Joyce looked amazing. Can't say about that like they. 398 00:15:23,480 --> 00:15:25,320 Speaker 2: Might have the lights might have gone off in their 399 00:15:25,360 --> 00:15:27,000 Speaker 2: head of oh my god, the guy who throws one 400 00:15:27,080 --> 00:15:28,640 Speaker 2: hundred and five is our best reliever. 401 00:15:28,840 --> 00:15:29,920 Speaker 1: Who saw that coming? 402 00:15:30,560 --> 00:15:32,880 Speaker 3: Seeing one hundred five miles in hour pitch was was 403 00:15:33,680 --> 00:15:35,440 Speaker 3: it was just insane. I could I couldn't believe made 404 00:15:35,560 --> 00:15:36,320 Speaker 3: He was even shocked. 405 00:15:36,320 --> 00:15:38,880 Speaker 1: He was like shit, it was. It was cool. 406 00:15:38,880 --> 00:15:40,480 Speaker 3: But it's just like I don't know, like I'm still 407 00:15:40,520 --> 00:15:42,320 Speaker 3: not going to scream and get mad about this because 408 00:15:42,920 --> 00:15:44,720 Speaker 3: it was just like this was so fluky. If one 409 00:15:44,720 --> 00:15:46,440 Speaker 3: more ball finds a hole, like we just we win 410 00:15:46,520 --> 00:15:48,280 Speaker 3: this series and none of these conversations are happening and 411 00:15:48,320 --> 00:15:50,640 Speaker 3: all this stuff is is just nonsense. Also, like none 412 00:15:50,680 --> 00:15:52,680 Speaker 3: of the I don't think any of our starting pitchers 413 00:15:52,720 --> 00:15:54,520 Speaker 3: like that sharp. I mean, Paul Blackman looked really good. 414 00:15:54,560 --> 00:15:57,280 Speaker 3: I'll break down Blackburn for Friday Night. But Peterson just 415 00:15:57,280 --> 00:15:59,480 Speaker 3: had another classic Peterson like this was he got to 416 00:15:59,480 --> 00:16:01,760 Speaker 3: the six ending, but I just don't know. I wasn't. 417 00:16:02,360 --> 00:16:03,960 Speaker 3: I didn't feel like you feel like, definitely pitch well 418 00:16:04,040 --> 00:16:05,920 Speaker 3: enough to win the game, But I wasn't Like day 419 00:16:05,920 --> 00:16:07,960 Speaker 3: appears as locked aw right now. Same with Katana on Sunday. 420 00:16:08,040 --> 00:16:09,800 Speaker 3: Kantana just he had no feel for the change up. 421 00:16:09,840 --> 00:16:11,480 Speaker 3: He still through a lot of curve balls, but it 422 00:16:11,520 --> 00:16:13,400 Speaker 3: wasn't as sharp as it has been a recent outings. 423 00:16:13,440 --> 00:16:16,120 Speaker 3: It was just this whole series just fucking bloof. It 424 00:16:16,160 --> 00:16:18,720 Speaker 3: was so block like it's whole hard to like figure 425 00:16:18,720 --> 00:16:20,160 Speaker 3: out good things to tell you guys about it. 426 00:16:20,280 --> 00:16:21,440 Speaker 1: You know what else was blah? 427 00:16:21,680 --> 00:16:25,160 Speaker 2: What I miss Gary?

I can't do it anymore. 434 00:16:39,880 --> 00:16:42,200 Speaker 3: No, we we take some shots at all moonface on 435 00:16:42,240 --> 00:16:45,240 Speaker 3: this podcast, but Gelobs was very bad, and play by 436 00:16:45,240 --> 00:16:47,040 Speaker 3: play it was alarmingly bad. 437 00:16:47,080 --> 00:16:50,800 Speaker 2: I'll say this hard hard to so hard for anybody 438 00:16:50,840 --> 00:16:53,160 Speaker 2: to fill out for Gary co And I remember Gary 439 00:16:53,200 --> 00:16:54,920 Speaker 2: Thorn filled in a couple of years ago. Remember when 440 00:16:54,920 --> 00:16:57,800 Speaker 2: Gary took a bath and Gary Thorne's awesome and people 441 00:16:57,920 --> 00:17:00,520 Speaker 2: did not like his commentary because it was Gary. 442 00:17:00,840 --> 00:17:01,400 Speaker 3: I like Thorn. 443 00:17:01,640 --> 00:17:03,640 Speaker 1: Yeah, I like Gary Thorn too. He's awesome, he's great. 444 00:17:04,080 --> 00:17:06,640 Speaker 1: Met guy, met guy. But it's hard. 445 00:17:06,800 --> 00:17:09,600 Speaker 2: It's hard shoes to fill in, and especially when you're 446 00:17:09,640 --> 00:17:11,639 Speaker 2: not particularly good at it, it's really hard shoes to 447 00:17:11,640 --> 00:17:13,679 Speaker 2: fill in. Because he was taking some pages out of 448 00:17:13,680 --> 00:17:18,080 Speaker 2: Michael Kay's playbook Minutes of Silence. Yeah, oh that's right, 449 00:17:18,119 --> 00:17:19,960 Speaker 2: this play just happened. Let me tell like Peter Lounsa 450 00:17:19,960 --> 00:17:21,480 Speaker 2: got hit by a pitch I think at one point, 451 00:17:21,880 --> 00:17:23,720 Speaker 2: or yeah, did he get hit by a pitch today? 452 00:17:24,640 --> 00:17:27,880 Speaker 2: Something happened to Pete. Two pitches happened. The result when 453 00:17:27,960 --> 00:17:30,840 Speaker 2: he goes, ah, that's yeah, that's a walk. I'm like, dude, 454 00:17:31,000 --> 00:17:32,440 Speaker 2: were you awake? Where you sleep? 455 00:17:32,520 --> 00:17:35,359 Speaker 1: Like that's the part that bothered me. Play by play 456 00:17:35,400 --> 00:17:35,640 Speaker 1: is tough. 457 00:17:35,680 --> 00:17:37,359 Speaker 2: I'm not gonna pretend like I could do a better job, 458 00:17:37,400 --> 00:17:40,800 Speaker 2: but it was a hard listen. I'm lucky that Friday 459 00:17:40,920 --> 00:17:44,240 Speaker 2: night we What did I do Friday night that I 460 00:17:44,240 --> 00:17:47,280 Speaker 2: didn't Yeah, I was with Ernie at Murphy's Bar in 461 00:17:47,320 --> 00:17:49,960 Speaker 2: Astoria shouts to Murphy's Bar if anybody goes there. And 462 00:17:50,000 --> 00:17:51,720 Speaker 2: they didn't have the game sound on, so that was great. 463 00:17:52,000 --> 00:17:55,600 Speaker 2: Didn't listen to it. Saturday, we did steak Steak dinner 464 00:17:55,640 --> 00:17:57,400 Speaker 2: and we went to JD's and then we went out. 465 00:17:57,680 --> 00:18:00,359 Speaker 2: Didn't listen to any of the commentary. Sunday, came home 466 00:18:00,440 --> 00:18:03,080 Speaker 2: from the Yankee game and I caught like the last 467 00:18:03,080 --> 00:18:04,840 Speaker 2: like four or five innings of the game, and that's 468 00:18:04,880 --> 00:18:07,000 Speaker 2: the first time I heard his commentary, and I was like, 469 00:18:07,040 --> 00:18:08,280 Speaker 2: I can't listen to this anymore. 470 00:18:08,280 --> 00:18:09,240 Speaker 1: This is putting me to sleep. 471 00:18:09,640 --> 00:18:11,280 Speaker 3: No, it was bad. I locked him for the game 472 00:18:11,320 --> 00:18:12,760 Speaker 3: on Friday, and I didn't know it was GELB, So 473 00:18:12,760 --> 00:18:14,760 Speaker 3: it was just a bad thing to be surprised about. 474 00:18:15,000 --> 00:18:19,359 Speaker 3: And he's in a matter of moments. He mispronounced Nolan 475 00:18:19,359 --> 00:18:21,160 Speaker 3: Shanuel's name, which he did the entire series. He didn't 476 00:18:21,160 --> 00:18:22,240 Speaker 3: get his name right once the whole time. 477 00:18:22,240 --> 00:18:24,600 Speaker 2: The only thing I'll say is tough, but also if 478 00:18:24,600 --> 00:18:25,800 Speaker 2: you're prepared, you would know how to. 479 00:18:25,800 --> 00:18:29,040 Speaker 3: Say it totally. And then he brought up Joe Biden 480 00:18:29,119 --> 00:18:30,920 Speaker 3: of all people in the world, he like made the 481 00:18:31,000 --> 00:18:33,440 Speaker 3: dry joke about Joe Biden. Rown was like, ha ha 482 00:18:33,440 --> 00:18:34,400 Speaker 3: ha ha cool man. 483 00:18:34,720 --> 00:18:35,640 Speaker 1: We're talking to politics. 484 00:18:35,960 --> 00:18:38,640 Speaker 3: Yeah cool. And then he brought again the one thing 485 00:18:38,640 --> 00:18:40,440 Speaker 3: that really bothered me about Kelves in this series. This 486 00:18:40,600 --> 00:18:42,280 Speaker 3: be the end of our bash GLB segment here. 487 00:18:42,200 --> 00:18:43,680 Speaker 1: Yeah, we don't want to go too long again. 488 00:18:43,800 --> 00:18:46,480 Speaker 3: These were a lot of close games and he kept 489 00:18:46,520 --> 00:18:49,200 Speaker 3: finding ways to not talk about the Mets. 490 00:18:49,400 --> 00:18:52,240 Speaker 2: Dude in the game today on Sunday, in the three 491 00:18:52,280 --> 00:18:54,240 Speaker 2: innings that I listened to, it was like the eighth inning, 492 00:18:54,240 --> 00:18:57,200 Speaker 2: it's a one run ball game, Wheeler talking about down 493 00:18:57,280 --> 00:18:59,320 Speaker 2: the league. He's like, oh, the Yankees, they rained de 494 00:18:59,400 --> 00:19:02,480 Speaker 2: lays Back, one run game, he's got the his streak going. 495 00:19:02,560 --> 00:19:05,840 Speaker 2: I'm like, dude, please fucking talk about the game that 496 00:19:06,000 --> 00:19:08,639 Speaker 2: And every time they showed Ben Joyce, he was like 497 00:19:08,680 --> 00:19:10,719 Speaker 2: Ben Joyce in the bullpent like it was just like 498 00:19:11,720 --> 00:19:15,480 Speaker 2: it's almost like it was like word diarrhea in a way, 499 00:19:15,520 --> 00:19:15,679 Speaker 2: like he. 500 00:19:15,680 --> 00:19:17,920 Speaker 1: Would see things just like say say what I see. 501 00:19:18,280 --> 00:19:20,280 Speaker 3: I think that that was the S and Y people 502 00:19:20,320 --> 00:19:22,119 Speaker 3: helping him a little bit by like flashing things on 503 00:19:22,160 --> 00:19:23,760 Speaker 3: the screen. Then he would talk because he's not itsuing 504 00:19:23,840 --> 00:19:25,439 Speaker 3: play by play is hard, and it doesn't seem like 505 00:19:25,440 --> 00:19:29,120 Speaker 3: that is where Gelbs's Tutelich has come in, because he's 506 00:19:29,160 --> 00:19:31,280 Speaker 3: a rapporter there. He's not. He wasn't. He wasn't brought 507 00:19:31,320 --> 00:19:33,320 Speaker 3: up as a broadcast. So it's interesting that S n 508 00:19:33,400 --> 00:19:35,000 Speaker 3: Y is trying to shoehorn him in here with this 509 00:19:35,040 --> 00:19:37,480 Speaker 3: because also he's been working with Ron Delling for a 510 00:19:37,480 --> 00:19:38,880 Speaker 3: one decade and it seemed like these two had never 511 00:19:38,880 --> 00:19:41,040 Speaker 3: met in their lives by the lack of chemistry they had. 512 00:19:41,160 --> 00:19:43,600 Speaker 3: And we know Ronnie's great. Ron goes on national broadcast 513 00:19:43,600 --> 00:19:45,200 Speaker 3: and he gets along well with all these other play 514 00:19:45,200 --> 00:19:47,560 Speaker 3: by play guys. But Steve Gelb was talking about like 515 00:19:47,600 --> 00:19:49,520 Speaker 3: the Jets on Friday Night and like a three in 516 00:19:49,520 --> 00:19:50,800 Speaker 3: the three run game. I was like, what are you 517 00:19:50,880 --> 00:19:51,360 Speaker 3: talking about? 518 00:19:51,440 --> 00:19:51,720 Speaker 1: Dude? 519 00:19:51,880 --> 00:19:54,160 Speaker 3: He's like and then he's like, Ronni, who's your football team? 520 00:19:54,200 --> 00:19:56,400 Speaker 3: He's like, uh, you know, we're doing this game right now. 521 00:19:56,400 --> 00:19:58,760 Speaker 3: We're just kind of made made comments about it. Let's 522 00:19:58,800 --> 00:20:00,760 Speaker 3: just talk about baseball right now. So so just I don't know. 523 00:20:00,800 --> 00:20:03,000 Speaker 3: I think it seems like he's been groomed for that spot, 524 00:20:03,040 --> 00:20:05,000 Speaker 3: which sucks, But I just I don't know how. He 525 00:20:05,520 --> 00:20:07,080 Speaker 3: seems like the kind of guy who just really need 526 00:20:07,119 --> 00:20:08,320 Speaker 3: to get a lot of reps in to get a 527 00:20:08,359 --> 00:20:10,320 Speaker 3: lot better than this. He needs to go down to 528 00:20:10,320 --> 00:20:13,600 Speaker 3: the to not come on Mets games. Yeah, he needs 529 00:20:13,640 --> 00:20:14,960 Speaker 3: to go to the Winter League, he needs he needs 530 00:20:14,960 --> 00:20:18,960 Speaker 3: to do the Mexicans Venezuelan League. Yeah, yeah, the Dominican League, Syracuse, 531 00:20:18,960 --> 00:20:21,440 Speaker 3: Mets Binghamton. But he spends all his free time doing 532 00:20:21,520 --> 00:20:24,360 Speaker 3: jet stuff, and you knows, and it's like it's it's 533 00:20:24,400 --> 00:20:27,000 Speaker 3: a shame too. I mentioned the Pirates broadcast before I've 534 00:20:27,000 --> 00:20:28,159 Speaker 3: been I just happen to be watching a lot of 535 00:20:28,160 --> 00:20:30,080 Speaker 3: Pirates games. I guess signed a lot of Electric teams 536 00:20:30,200 --> 00:20:32,800 Speaker 3: eat East Coast games for road the world. But then 537 00:20:32,880 --> 00:20:35,080 Speaker 3: also they're just fun and something I love so much 538 00:20:35,080 --> 00:20:37,640 Speaker 3: about the Pirates broadcast that was it's always so true 539 00:20:37,640 --> 00:20:39,280 Speaker 3: with the Mets broadcast. I think it's something that used 540 00:20:39,280 --> 00:20:41,360 Speaker 3: to be very true of all baseball announcers, but it's 541 00:20:41,359 --> 00:20:43,920 Speaker 3: not true anymore. These guys fucking love the team. These 542 00:20:43,920 --> 00:20:46,320 Speaker 3: are huge fans, like these pirates. Guys are screaming at 543 00:20:46,320 --> 00:20:48,080 Speaker 3: the top of their lungs and are being scored like 544 00:20:48,119 --> 00:20:49,760 Speaker 3: Garry Cone is throwing pens on the ground. They're like 545 00:20:49,800 --> 00:20:50,560 Speaker 3: high fiving up there. 546 00:20:50,560 --> 00:20:52,240 Speaker 1: They're jacked up. They'll go They'll be. 547 00:20:52,200 --> 00:20:56,280 Speaker 3: Like go get out, like go go go carry like 548 00:20:56,400 --> 00:20:58,879 Speaker 3: a Chewa bay the ball tonight and the guy was 549 00:20:58,920 --> 00:21:02,800 Speaker 3: like go go. It was great. And listen to Gelves 550 00:21:02,800 --> 00:21:04,280 Speaker 3: and we know he's not a Mets fan, so it's 551 00:21:04,359 --> 00:21:06,040 Speaker 3: just like, it doesn't seem like he has the same 552 00:21:06,119 --> 00:21:07,960 Speaker 3: kind of juice that we're used to. And it's a 553 00:21:07,960 --> 00:21:09,960 Speaker 3: lot of this because we are blessed we have the 554 00:21:10,000 --> 00:21:13,359 Speaker 3: best announcers basically in sports who do these games every night, 555 00:21:13,400 --> 00:21:14,680 Speaker 3: and a lot of that does come back to Gary 556 00:21:14,720 --> 00:21:17,440 Speaker 3: Cohen night after night, day after day, year after year. 557 00:21:17,480 --> 00:21:20,200 Speaker 3: He is there. He loves the Mets. He's incredibly knowledgeable, 558 00:21:20,240 --> 00:21:23,679 Speaker 3: and he's incredible cerebral, Like he doesn't talk about the 559 00:21:23,680 --> 00:21:25,280 Speaker 3: game in ways that it's still interesting and brings it 560 00:21:25,320 --> 00:21:28,280 Speaker 3: back to the game he does like it's it's it's 561 00:21:28,359 --> 00:21:30,200 Speaker 3: very I don't want to compare these two guys, but 562 00:21:30,280 --> 00:21:31,679 Speaker 3: it's just this is the great announcer of every and 563 00:21:31,680 --> 00:21:33,520 Speaker 3: I think Gary does something similarly to him where it's 564 00:21:33,600 --> 00:21:36,439 Speaker 3: very Vince scullyish, where he can keep the game in 565 00:21:36,480 --> 00:21:39,159 Speaker 3: your focus while having a completely different conversation. Well, and 566 00:21:39,200 --> 00:21:41,480 Speaker 3: that's me is so hard to do and so impressive, 567 00:21:41,680 --> 00:21:43,679 Speaker 3: and I think Gelb was trying to do that, but 568 00:21:43,680 --> 00:21:45,600 Speaker 3: he's nowhere near this kind of talent experience. 569 00:21:45,800 --> 00:21:48,199 Speaker 2: What Gary's great at is he's a radio guy, so 570 00:21:48,280 --> 00:21:52,040 Speaker 2: he he's illustrating. He's illustrating, he's painting a picture of 571 00:21:52,080 --> 00:21:54,560 Speaker 2: what's happening, just in case you aren't watching, if you're 572 00:21:54,600 --> 00:21:56,439 Speaker 2: just listening to him on the TV. As well as 573 00:21:56,440 --> 00:21:59,199 Speaker 2: like the dead times, he's able to fill that with 574 00:21:59,240 --> 00:22:02,639 Speaker 2: like useful and formation that does connect to what's actually happening. 575 00:22:02,800 --> 00:22:05,000 Speaker 2: If they showed Ben Joyce, they'd be like, he'd be 576 00:22:05,000 --> 00:22:07,240 Speaker 2: like Ben Joyce one hundred and five, like telling you 577 00:22:07,240 --> 00:22:07,840 Speaker 2: things about him. 578 00:22:07,840 --> 00:22:08,400 Speaker 1: He's a big boy. 579 00:22:08,480 --> 00:22:11,600 Speaker 3: Look at the pitch ever in Division one college baseball, Yes. 580 00:22:11,359 --> 00:22:13,199 Speaker 2: He'd be dropping stuff like that, not just being like 581 00:22:13,760 --> 00:22:14,760 Speaker 2: flashed Ben Joyce. 582 00:22:15,240 --> 00:22:17,560 Speaker 1: Hey, there's Ben Joyce and then like flashing pitch. 583 00:22:17,760 --> 00:22:20,840 Speaker 2: Yeah, flashback to like home plays, like oh I missed 584 00:22:20,840 --> 00:22:24,520 Speaker 2: the pitch that was a strike like Gelves was very 585 00:22:24,560 --> 00:22:28,880 Speaker 2: much just like saying what he saw rather than like narrationating. Yeah, narrating, 586 00:22:28,920 --> 00:22:30,639 Speaker 2: and Gary narrates. That's a good way to put it. 587 00:22:30,840 --> 00:22:31,040 Speaker 3: Yeah. 588 00:22:31,440 --> 00:22:34,040 Speaker 2: Again, then at the end of the bash, Gelves but 589 00:22:34,560 --> 00:22:36,280 Speaker 2: it was really bad. It was it was really, really, 590 00:22:36,280 --> 00:22:39,120 Speaker 2: really really bad. Monday is gonna be rough because he's 591 00:22:39,200 --> 00:22:40,399 Speaker 2: probably gonna be by himself. 592 00:22:40,720 --> 00:22:42,600 Speaker 3: Yeah. Well, this was a funny story that came out 593 00:22:42,600 --> 00:22:44,439 Speaker 3: of it. So there was a horrible rainstorm in New 594 00:22:44,480 --> 00:22:47,280 Speaker 3: York today delayed the end game out like three hours 595 00:22:48,119 --> 00:22:51,080 Speaker 3: with a die game, So Keith's flight got canceled. Think 596 00:22:51,119 --> 00:22:54,480 Speaker 3: Laura Albany's has did two news airport there and Keith 597 00:22:54,480 --> 00:22:56,159 Speaker 3: guys new flights not landing in Saint Luis till two 598 00:22:56,200 --> 00:22:59,480 Speaker 3: fifteen and the game's at at four o'clock local times. 599 00:23:00,080 --> 00:23:02,720 Speaker 3: Misses the games. That's just it, which is funny. But 600 00:23:03,200 --> 00:23:04,919 Speaker 3: I don't know. Hopefully Gelve is not alone for that, 601 00:23:04,920 --> 00:23:06,360 Speaker 3: because then I will just listen to the radio. 602 00:23:06,359 --> 00:23:08,640 Speaker 2: I will listen to the radio. Back I got something 603 00:23:08,640 --> 00:23:11,440 Speaker 2: to talk about. Yeah, I think Jeff McNeil's back. I 604 00:23:11,480 --> 00:23:13,520 Speaker 2: think he's back to another really good series. He's hitting 605 00:23:13,520 --> 00:23:14,960 Speaker 2: the ball harder than I feel like he has in 606 00:23:15,040 --> 00:23:17,480 Speaker 2: a while. He was off on Friday, but Saturday and 607 00:23:17,600 --> 00:23:20,359 Speaker 2: Sunday multiple hard hit balls in each game, hit a double. 608 00:23:20,400 --> 00:23:22,040 Speaker 3: He almost hit the double on Saturday, but he tried 609 00:23:22,080 --> 00:23:24,160 Speaker 3: to stretch it. He was not close. He was close 610 00:23:24,160 --> 00:23:25,920 Speaker 3: to being safe, but also not close. At the same time. 611 00:23:26,359 --> 00:23:28,240 Speaker 3: He looks really good for Yeah, yeah. 612 00:23:28,119 --> 00:23:32,080 Speaker 2: Jeff McNeil's last thirty games once he hit batting average M. 613 00:23:32,680 --> 00:23:34,320 Speaker 3: Three on nine to ninety two. 614 00:23:34,720 --> 00:23:36,840 Speaker 2: Okay, it's really that's a really good thirty game stretch 615 00:23:36,880 --> 00:23:39,360 Speaker 2: for a guy who's been who was, I mean way 616 00:23:39,400 --> 00:23:42,240 Speaker 2: below league average, five sixty two slugging in that thirty 617 00:23:42,240 --> 00:23:46,960 Speaker 2: game stretch, five homers, seventeen RBIs, twenty six hits, twenty eight, 618 00:23:47,040 --> 00:23:49,560 Speaker 2: twenty six for eighty nine. Like, that's if that's the 619 00:23:49,640 --> 00:23:51,239 Speaker 2: Jeff McNeil we're going to get the rest of the year. 620 00:23:51,280 --> 00:23:51,840 Speaker 1: That's awesome. 621 00:23:51,880 --> 00:23:54,560 Speaker 3: That's huge, fantastic. Another thing I want to talk about too, 622 00:23:54,800 --> 00:23:57,440 Speaker 3: new acquisition, Paul Blackburn. Yes, I had an awesome first 623 00:23:57,440 --> 00:23:59,399 Speaker 3: star with the team. I hope, I hope everybody had 624 00:23:59,400 --> 00:24:01,520 Speaker 3: their three beers and a Friday night during Paul Blackburn's 625 00:24:01,600 --> 00:24:04,560 Speaker 3: quality start and something else really really, really cool Paul 626 00:24:04,560 --> 00:24:07,840 Speaker 3: Blackburn did changed totally reworked his pitch mix and what 627 00:24:07,880 --> 00:24:09,440 Speaker 3: he was doing from when he was with the Ace. 628 00:24:09,520 --> 00:24:10,960 Speaker 3: This is something that I think a lot of people 629 00:24:11,160 --> 00:24:13,920 Speaker 3: I know, Jared Sidler, the Baseball Perspective prospect guy, Bets fan, 630 00:24:14,240 --> 00:24:16,000 Speaker 3: he foretold this second the trade happened, he was like, 631 00:24:16,000 --> 00:24:18,240 Speaker 3: Paul Blackburn is not gonna throw fastballs anymore with the Mets. 632 00:24:18,480 --> 00:24:21,119 Speaker 3: That was exactly what happened. Paul Blackburn went all colors 633 00:24:21,119 --> 00:24:22,600 Speaker 3: and change ups and he was throwing a tick Harther 634 00:24:22,800 --> 00:24:25,479 Speaker 3: could have just been the adrenaline. Yeah, but all colors 635 00:24:25,480 --> 00:24:28,280 Speaker 3: and change ups. Both those pitches missed a lot of bats. 636 00:24:28,280 --> 00:24:30,160 Speaker 3: I want to get the exact whiffs here now. Three 637 00:24:30,160 --> 00:24:32,280 Speaker 3: swings and misses on the cover, six wings and misses 638 00:24:32,280 --> 00:24:33,600 Speaker 3: on the change up, which is really nice to see. 639 00:24:33,640 --> 00:24:34,200 Speaker 1: Look really good. 640 00:24:34,560 --> 00:24:36,320 Speaker 3: Yeah, he was in the zone a lot. He wasn't 641 00:24:36,320 --> 00:24:38,520 Speaker 3: getting that many chases, but he was throwing a pitch 642 00:24:38,560 --> 00:24:40,120 Speaker 3: on the zone a lot, so didn't have to and 643 00:24:40,560 --> 00:24:42,920 Speaker 3: Hylo lead and he just kind of looked very comfortable, 644 00:24:43,040 --> 00:24:46,160 Speaker 3: very cohesive, very solid all the round game by Paul 645 00:24:46,160 --> 00:24:48,320 Speaker 3: Blackburn left the game with eighty two pitches and six innings. 646 00:24:48,359 --> 00:24:50,800 Speaker 3: Which was definitely because I don't think they wanted to 647 00:24:51,000 --> 00:24:53,240 Speaker 3: see lineup again over and over again, and the Budla 648 00:24:53,240 --> 00:24:54,480 Speaker 3: came in for the two wings and closed it down. 649 00:24:54,520 --> 00:24:56,720 Speaker 3: But really nice that there was some tangible changes to 650 00:24:56,760 --> 00:24:58,720 Speaker 3: what Paul Blackman did. Really nice that he took care 651 00:24:58,720 --> 00:25:01,240 Speaker 3: of a bat the Angel's lineup and something, there's something 652 00:25:01,320 --> 00:25:03,200 Speaker 3: just to be a little nice and secure and moving forward. 653 00:25:03,200 --> 00:25:04,400 Speaker 3: That he's a really good back end starter. 654 00:25:04,720 --> 00:25:07,160 Speaker 2: Yeah, and you see how happy he was when they 655 00:25:07,160 --> 00:25:09,840 Speaker 2: turned the Lindor and Jose Glaciers turned two of the 656 00:25:10,040 --> 00:25:12,200 Speaker 2: nicest double players I've seen in a really long time. 657 00:25:12,240 --> 00:25:15,439 Speaker 2: Lindor had a greatrist defensive series just in general, but 658 00:25:15,440 --> 00:25:18,560 Speaker 2: they turned those two double players, and Paul blackburn smile 659 00:25:18,680 --> 00:25:20,320 Speaker 2: was ear to ear on his face because again we 660 00:25:20,320 --> 00:25:22,359 Speaker 2: talked about it, the A's defense behind him has always 661 00:25:22,359 --> 00:25:25,680 Speaker 2: been dogshit terrible, like it's been so so bad. So 662 00:25:25,760 --> 00:25:27,399 Speaker 2: he was probably like, I didn't just get one out 663 00:25:27,520 --> 00:25:28,520 Speaker 2: on that ball, I got two. 664 00:25:28,800 --> 00:25:30,760 Speaker 1: They got two outs for be holy shit. I love 665 00:25:30,840 --> 00:25:31,240 Speaker 1: this team. 666 00:25:31,280 --> 00:25:33,600 Speaker 3: I love it here and it seems like a real 667 00:25:34,000 --> 00:25:36,080 Speaker 3: fundamental part of the trade deadlines. All these guys have 668 00:25:36,160 --> 00:25:40,280 Speaker 3: left these bad teams. Eli Menez Blackburn, Tanner, Scott Brian 669 00:25:40,320 --> 00:25:41,800 Speaker 3: de la Cruz and they're going to their new teams 670 00:25:41,800 --> 00:25:44,160 Speaker 3: and being like, I'm feeling myself now, I'm right, Jazz, 671 00:25:44,160 --> 00:25:46,240 Speaker 3: I'm ready to play some fucking baseball for the first time. 672 00:25:46,240 --> 00:25:48,360 Speaker 3: And Blackburn is never He's never. I mean, I guess 673 00:25:48,359 --> 00:25:49,920 Speaker 3: when he was young, so he's still in those as 674 00:25:49,960 --> 00:25:51,840 Speaker 3: teams they were still pretty good, but it's been a 675 00:25:51,880 --> 00:25:54,240 Speaker 3: while since he's been on a come like an actual 676 00:25:54,640 --> 00:25:55,800 Speaker 3: competent baseball. 677 00:25:55,440 --> 00:25:57,800 Speaker 1: Team, a team that's actively attempting to win. 678 00:25:58,040 --> 00:25:59,840 Speaker 3: Yeah, a team that's trying to win baseball games. I 679 00:25:59,840 --> 00:26:02,120 Speaker 3: think I just also mentioned Buddah Boodha still a bullpen as. 680 00:26:02,480 --> 00:26:05,479 Speaker 3: I thought it was cool that Mendoza only doing him 681 00:26:05,480 --> 00:26:06,720 Speaker 3: for the two winnings, and he said that after the game, 682 00:26:06,720 --> 00:26:07,920 Speaker 3: He's like, if I throw him for the three innings, 683 00:26:07,920 --> 00:26:09,119 Speaker 3: that's nextra day. He has to have off and he's 684 00:26:09,119 --> 00:26:10,480 Speaker 3: two important a piece right now. We don't have an 685 00:26:10,480 --> 00:26:11,720 Speaker 3: off that next week, so I need to make sure 686 00:26:11,720 --> 00:26:14,120 Speaker 3: he's ready for Monday, basically if we need him. 687 00:26:14,160 --> 00:26:18,520 Speaker 2: But Jeff McNeil's brother was in the minor leagues. He 688 00:26:18,560 --> 00:26:20,320 Speaker 2: had a brother in the minor leagues. How has just 689 00:26:20,359 --> 00:26:21,120 Speaker 2: never been talked about. 690 00:26:21,280 --> 00:26:22,639 Speaker 3: How did you even just find that just now? 691 00:26:22,680 --> 00:26:24,560 Speaker 2: Because I was on his MLB dot com page when 692 00:26:24,600 --> 00:26:27,080 Speaker 2: I wanted to get his active like his updated stats, 693 00:26:27,080 --> 00:26:29,000 Speaker 2: because savant and all those take a little bit longer, 694 00:26:29,359 --> 00:26:32,440 Speaker 2: and then said brother of Ryan McNeil, and I clicked it. 695 00:26:32,680 --> 00:26:35,359 Speaker 2: Guy was pitching in the miners in twenty eighteen. Mm, 696 00:26:35,560 --> 00:26:37,040 Speaker 2: that's kind of crazy. He looks like he was in 697 00:26:37,080 --> 00:26:39,399 Speaker 2: the I don't know what organization of this cubs. 698 00:26:39,400 --> 00:26:44,199 Speaker 3: Maybe that's kind of crazy. But digress. Just again, it 699 00:26:44,280 --> 00:26:47,560 Speaker 3: was this series sucked, stunk, but it wasn't even just 700 00:26:47,640 --> 00:26:50,359 Speaker 3: like it's not even like they played poorly. They just 701 00:26:50,400 --> 00:26:53,600 Speaker 3: lost some shit games, like they just played poorly. But yeah, 702 00:26:53,600 --> 00:26:55,720 Speaker 3: they played kind of bad, they didn't really play that bad. 703 00:26:55,800 --> 00:26:57,840 Speaker 3: Like if they played these exact same three games a 704 00:26:57,880 --> 00:26:59,600 Speaker 3: thousand more times, they might sweep the series, you know 705 00:26:59,600 --> 00:27:02,159 Speaker 3: what I mean. I mean like, in every simulation of 706 00:27:02,160 --> 00:27:04,400 Speaker 3: this series, they play these exact games over and over again. 707 00:27:04,440 --> 00:27:06,520 Speaker 3: They might win two, they might win three. Like, it's 708 00:27:06,560 --> 00:27:09,520 Speaker 3: not like they got outplayed and they did like shit, It's. 709 00:27:09,440 --> 00:27:11,639 Speaker 2: Just it was just it was one thing I do 710 00:27:11,680 --> 00:27:14,840 Speaker 2: want to talk about Alvarez. The plate got to move closer. Yes, 711 00:27:14,880 --> 00:27:16,840 Speaker 2: it is, it is. It is becoming a problem now 712 00:27:16,840 --> 00:27:19,680 Speaker 2: with how far away he is standing from the plate. 713 00:27:19,960 --> 00:27:22,480 Speaker 2: Just again, you're gonna give me the stats here visually 714 00:27:22,600 --> 00:27:26,360 Speaker 2: like me watching the pitches down the middle of the way, 715 00:27:26,400 --> 00:27:28,320 Speaker 2: He's like he's casting his hands out, he's fishing. 716 00:27:28,320 --> 00:27:29,280 Speaker 1: He just can't get to them. 717 00:27:29,280 --> 00:27:31,840 Speaker 2: And I don't I don't know what the thought process 718 00:27:32,040 --> 00:27:33,760 Speaker 2: is behind him standing so far away. 719 00:27:34,160 --> 00:27:36,600 Speaker 1: I'm hoping the Mets are also seeing it because I 720 00:27:36,840 --> 00:27:37,159 Speaker 1: hate it. 721 00:27:37,160 --> 00:27:38,640 Speaker 2: I don't like how far away he is from the plate. 722 00:27:38,640 --> 00:27:40,960 Speaker 2: It seems like he's now forcing himself to swing at 723 00:27:41,000 --> 00:27:43,520 Speaker 2: inside pitches and balls rather than swinging at strikes. 724 00:27:44,119 --> 00:27:46,760 Speaker 3: Bron mentioned that they have talked to him about it, 725 00:27:46,760 --> 00:27:48,680 Speaker 3: and he said that's where he feels comfortable because he 726 00:27:48,680 --> 00:27:50,920 Speaker 3: really likes to get his power from those pitches middle in. 727 00:27:51,240 --> 00:27:53,280 Speaker 3: And Alvarez has done great on those pitches middle in, 728 00:27:53,359 --> 00:27:55,480 Speaker 3: like this year. If you look at his Baseball Savan, 729 00:27:55,560 --> 00:27:57,919 Speaker 3: if you go on players tab where it goes says zones, 730 00:27:58,240 --> 00:28:00,320 Speaker 3: you can see all their stats aligned by where the 731 00:28:00,320 --> 00:28:01,960 Speaker 3: pitches and the strikes. So it's really really cool thing. 732 00:28:02,320 --> 00:28:04,040 Speaker 3: And Alvarez has been amazing this year, much better than 733 00:28:04,040 --> 00:28:05,399 Speaker 3: he was last year on those pitches up and in 734 00:28:05,440 --> 00:28:06,960 Speaker 3: we talked about that was a problem zone for him, 735 00:28:06,960 --> 00:28:09,200 Speaker 3: and then obviouselyas an episode with Alvarez. But with that, 736 00:28:09,240 --> 00:28:11,400 Speaker 3: he has sacrificed a lot of pitches loan and away, 737 00:28:11,400 --> 00:28:14,160 Speaker 3: and now that he sacrificed that, pictures are really really 738 00:28:14,240 --> 00:28:17,000 Speaker 3: keying in on that spot and it's not he's not 739 00:28:17,040 --> 00:28:19,080 Speaker 3: really responding to it. He's seen more than twice as 740 00:28:19,080 --> 00:28:20,760 Speaker 3: many pitches low and away and outside the zone, and 741 00:28:20,760 --> 00:28:22,800 Speaker 3: he has any other piece of the strike zone or 742 00:28:22,800 --> 00:28:24,800 Speaker 3: any other piece outside strikes all year more than two 743 00:28:24,800 --> 00:28:26,080 Speaker 3: times as many, double as much. 744 00:28:26,200 --> 00:28:28,399 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean if you were on the mound and 745 00:28:28,440 --> 00:28:31,160 Speaker 2: you saw where he was saying, like he physically cannot 746 00:28:31,160 --> 00:28:33,560 Speaker 2: touch that pitch and it is a strike. It's not 747 00:28:33,600 --> 00:28:36,880 Speaker 2: like I'm throwing balls. He's making it an impossible pitch 748 00:28:36,920 --> 00:28:38,680 Speaker 2: to hit. So that's why it doesn't make sense to me. 749 00:28:38,720 --> 00:28:41,480 Speaker 2: Why is he he's cheating for the inside pitches, some 750 00:28:41,520 --> 00:28:43,840 Speaker 2: of which that are balls, but giving up pitches that 751 00:28:43,960 --> 00:28:45,959 Speaker 2: like are called strikes that he can't hit. 752 00:28:45,960 --> 00:28:46,760 Speaker 1: They're unhittable. 753 00:28:47,040 --> 00:28:49,760 Speaker 3: And even with being called strikes, he's swinging and missing, 754 00:28:49,840 --> 00:28:52,240 Speaker 3: and the low and outside little corner of the plate 755 00:28:52,280 --> 00:28:54,600 Speaker 3: at fifty four percent of the time, and low outside 756 00:28:54,720 --> 00:28:56,360 Speaker 3: out of the plate seventy four percent in. 757 00:28:56,360 --> 00:28:59,200 Speaker 1: The physically impossible. He can't not touch the ball there. 758 00:28:59,480 --> 00:29:01,560 Speaker 3: I have a lot of much, very more bad stats 759 00:29:01,560 --> 00:29:03,040 Speaker 3: of what's going on Alvarez in the outside part of 760 00:29:03,080 --> 00:29:05,160 Speaker 3: the zone. His average ex of velosity and those pitches 761 00:29:05,160 --> 00:29:08,000 Speaker 3: low and outside sixty four miles an hour. It's it's 762 00:29:08,040 --> 00:29:11,800 Speaker 3: the shot and Fransis Guavas doesn't have one barrel this 763 00:29:11,840 --> 00:29:15,280 Speaker 3: season on any pitch outside or low in the strike zone. 764 00:29:15,360 --> 00:29:17,960 Speaker 3: Every single one of his barrels is low. Every single 765 00:29:17,960 --> 00:29:19,760 Speaker 3: one of his barrels either up and in down the middle, 766 00:29:19,800 --> 00:29:21,440 Speaker 3: and then he has a few barrels high and above 767 00:29:21,440 --> 00:29:24,320 Speaker 3: the strike zone. That's it. He has a zero percent 768 00:29:24,360 --> 00:29:26,760 Speaker 3: hard hit rate on pitches low and low and low 769 00:29:26,760 --> 00:29:29,520 Speaker 3: and outside the zone, and one and eleven percent hard 770 00:29:29,560 --> 00:29:32,320 Speaker 3: hit rate for low and low and outside in the 771 00:29:32,320 --> 00:29:32,840 Speaker 3: strike zone. 772 00:29:32,920 --> 00:29:34,959 Speaker 1: Do we think there's anything more to that shoulder injury? 773 00:29:35,000 --> 00:29:37,040 Speaker 2: Maybe that that I said that a week ago and 774 00:29:37,080 --> 00:29:39,240 Speaker 2: you told me no. I thought I thought no because 775 00:29:39,240 --> 00:29:41,320 Speaker 2: he was playing. But like I don't think. I don't 776 00:29:41,360 --> 00:29:43,000 Speaker 2: think the shoulder injury has to do with where he's 777 00:29:43,000 --> 00:29:45,480 Speaker 2: setting up. I'm saying, does the shoulder injury have to 778 00:29:45,480 --> 00:29:47,120 Speaker 2: do with why he's not hitting the ball as well? 779 00:29:47,160 --> 00:29:48,520 Speaker 2: I don't think that has anything to do with where 780 00:29:48,520 --> 00:29:49,160 Speaker 2: he is in the plate. 781 00:29:49,520 --> 00:29:52,080 Speaker 3: Again, just for me, the fact that he's being pitched 782 00:29:52,080 --> 00:29:54,080 Speaker 3: there so much, there has to be an adjustment. I 783 00:29:54,080 --> 00:29:55,640 Speaker 3: don't know where it is or when it comes, if 784 00:29:55,640 --> 00:29:57,400 Speaker 3: they if he's already been like no, I don't want 785 00:29:57,440 --> 00:29:57,840 Speaker 3: to do that. 786 00:29:58,240 --> 00:29:59,880 Speaker 2: Yeah, which is weird because that doesn't feel like an 787 00:30:00,160 --> 00:30:02,760 Speaker 2: his thing to be like no, not not making a change. 788 00:30:02,960 --> 00:30:04,880 Speaker 3: No, definitely. Also, I mean it was ron of the 789 00:30:04,880 --> 00:30:07,160 Speaker 3: secondhand story. So we'll to see how this comes out. 790 00:30:07,280 --> 00:30:09,360 Speaker 3: I wonder if everyone's asking Dozed about this. I'm sure 791 00:30:09,360 --> 00:30:10,760 Speaker 3: they have. I'm sure we'll get some artcles about it. 792 00:30:10,760 --> 00:30:13,280 Speaker 3: But just all the Metroporos are doing crazy work right now. 793 00:30:13,400 --> 00:30:15,000 Speaker 3: The fact they have to go to this one game 794 00:30:15,000 --> 00:30:16,920 Speaker 3: in Saint Louis. I really can't believe that this happening 795 00:30:16,960 --> 00:30:19,120 Speaker 3: is almost hilariously shocking that we're gonna do this on Monday. 796 00:30:19,160 --> 00:30:21,280 Speaker 3: But Devin's in troubling things so overs right now, in 797 00:30:21,280 --> 00:30:22,920 Speaker 3: the fact that that zone has been such an issue 798 00:30:22,920 --> 00:30:25,080 Speaker 3: for him, and I even just that zone, everything outside 799 00:30:25,080 --> 00:30:27,040 Speaker 3: and everything low. He's had no power on that. He 800 00:30:27,040 --> 00:30:29,040 Speaker 3: can't get to them. It's it's it's it's a it's 801 00:30:29,040 --> 00:30:29,520 Speaker 3: an issue. 802 00:30:29,600 --> 00:30:31,840 Speaker 1: Can I read text from my uncle George? Yes? 803 00:30:31,880 --> 00:30:33,520 Speaker 2: Please, this is this is good. This is how we'll 804 00:30:33,600 --> 00:30:36,520 Speaker 2: lead into media marvels here, Uncle George legend. If we 805 00:30:36,560 --> 00:30:38,640 Speaker 2: could get this guy on Twitter, I mean, he'd be 806 00:30:38,680 --> 00:30:39,400 Speaker 2: the next big thing. 807 00:30:39,520 --> 00:30:43,360 Speaker 1: He's a legend. Good, good Greek guy, thick accent, great mustache. 808 00:30:43,840 --> 00:30:45,920 Speaker 1: He said. Mutt's manager is a moron. 809 00:30:46,160 --> 00:30:46,920 Speaker 3: He is obvious. 810 00:30:47,000 --> 00:30:49,920 Speaker 2: He obviously is horrible managing a tight game, trailing through 811 00:30:49,920 --> 00:30:51,520 Speaker 2: two with men on first and third and one out. 812 00:30:51,560 --> 00:30:53,400 Speaker 1: Ooh, makes a good point here. This was weird. 813 00:30:53,440 --> 00:30:55,600 Speaker 2: I do want to talk about this, okay, trailing three 814 00:30:55,680 --> 00:30:57,560 Speaker 2: two with men on first and third and one out 815 00:30:57,560 --> 00:30:59,000 Speaker 2: in the seventh inning, and he did not try to 816 00:30:59,040 --> 00:31:01,040 Speaker 2: steal second, see if they can tie the game. 817 00:31:01,200 --> 00:31:03,600 Speaker 3: Then Vento's hit into the double play. I did think 818 00:31:03,880 --> 00:31:05,720 Speaker 3: that's not true. He did steal second and a pitch 819 00:31:05,800 --> 00:31:06,360 Speaker 3: was fouled off. 820 00:31:06,480 --> 00:31:08,680 Speaker 1: I know, but it was weird that they didn't try 821 00:31:08,720 --> 00:31:10,120 Speaker 1: to do it again. Yeah. 822 00:31:10,200 --> 00:31:12,920 Speaker 2: I thought it was weird to pinch run for Jesse Winker, 823 00:31:12,920 --> 00:31:14,920 Speaker 2: who I don't think is much slower than Tyrone Taylor. 824 00:31:15,280 --> 00:31:17,480 Speaker 2: And then I think he's much slower and I think 825 00:31:17,520 --> 00:31:19,640 Speaker 2: not be as aggressive though on the on the base path, 826 00:31:19,680 --> 00:31:21,240 Speaker 2: so like I feel like you have to be aggressive 827 00:31:21,240 --> 00:31:23,320 Speaker 2: there if you're making that move pincher running the guy 828 00:31:23,400 --> 00:31:25,640 Speaker 2: behind the tying run. 829 00:31:26,040 --> 00:31:28,400 Speaker 3: Uh no, that was the Oh yeah that was go 830 00:31:28,640 --> 00:31:29,240 Speaker 3: the go ahead run. 831 00:31:29,320 --> 00:31:30,280 Speaker 1: Yeah, the go ahead run. Yeah. 832 00:31:30,280 --> 00:31:32,280 Speaker 3: Okay, so not the guy behind the ti Tyrone Taylor 833 00:31:32,320 --> 00:31:34,280 Speaker 3: is a ninety per talent sprits me and Jesse's winners 834 00:31:34,320 --> 00:31:34,920 Speaker 3: in twenty percent. 835 00:31:35,000 --> 00:31:37,800 Speaker 2: He's ninetieth Yes, ninety fast. Oh I did not know 836 00:31:37,840 --> 00:31:40,680 Speaker 2: he was that fast. Okay, great, apologies by apologies, but. 837 00:31:40,680 --> 00:31:42,320 Speaker 3: I did I push back in that. People were talking 838 00:31:42,320 --> 00:31:44,160 Speaker 3: about that on Twitter as well. He did try to 839 00:31:44,160 --> 00:31:46,200 Speaker 3: steal a ball got filed off, but he only. 840 00:31:45,960 --> 00:31:47,640 Speaker 2: Tried to steal once and it was late in the count, 841 00:31:47,680 --> 00:31:49,120 Speaker 2: Like what was going on the rest of the count, 842 00:31:49,120 --> 00:31:51,200 Speaker 2: Like why would I don't know, he might have just 843 00:31:51,240 --> 00:31:52,000 Speaker 2: been able to pick him up. 844 00:31:52,040 --> 00:31:54,120 Speaker 3: The fact that the stolen base was attempted, I think 845 00:31:54,160 --> 00:31:55,640 Speaker 3: that can come back to the bit that they didn't 846 00:31:55,640 --> 00:31:57,880 Speaker 3: do to the manager. I think the next play was 847 00:31:57,880 --> 00:31:58,440 Speaker 3: a double. 848 00:31:58,200 --> 00:32:02,200 Speaker 1: Play something something, Yeah, but run again, you can run again. 849 00:32:02,360 --> 00:32:04,000 Speaker 3: I do think it was weird that there wasn't an 850 00:32:04,040 --> 00:32:05,560 Speaker 3: attempt to steal into lay there in the at bat. 851 00:32:05,560 --> 00:32:07,960 Speaker 3: But I think again that to me means the steal 852 00:32:08,080 --> 00:32:10,040 Speaker 3: was on and it was up to Tyrone Taylor. I got, 853 00:32:10,720 --> 00:32:13,160 Speaker 3: he's gotta be better whatever, Sure, no, he does has 854 00:32:13,160 --> 00:32:14,760 Speaker 3: to be better. But I think that comes back to 855 00:32:14,880 --> 00:32:16,120 Speaker 3: the player more than the manager. 856 00:32:16,160 --> 00:32:16,800 Speaker 1: I can get behind you. 857 00:32:16,840 --> 00:32:19,600 Speaker 3: If steel, if the steel was on in the at 858 00:32:19,600 --> 00:32:21,600 Speaker 3: bat and the steel wasn't tempte, I think it was 859 00:32:21,640 --> 00:32:22,920 Speaker 3: the fourth or fifth or sixth pitch of the at 860 00:32:22,960 --> 00:32:25,320 Speaker 3: bata just also just missed the pitch right in the 861 00:32:25,360 --> 00:32:27,880 Speaker 3: middle of then that happened. But that to me, he 862 00:32:27,880 --> 00:32:29,440 Speaker 3: says it was on the player, not the manager. 863 00:32:29,640 --> 00:32:32,120 Speaker 2: I can get behind that that reasoning the manager might 864 00:32:32,120 --> 00:32:33,720 Speaker 2: have put it on. He's got more of tho, Uncle George. 865 00:32:34,600 --> 00:32:36,480 Speaker 2: His most stupid move was also in the seventh, when 866 00:32:36,480 --> 00:32:38,560 Speaker 2: Bader singled and Alonzo advanced to third. He should have 867 00:32:38,560 --> 00:32:40,560 Speaker 2: replaced Alonzo for a pinch runner so they can attempt 868 00:32:40,600 --> 00:32:43,440 Speaker 2: to double steal. Instead, the jerk off removed Bader for 869 00:32:43,520 --> 00:32:47,280 Speaker 2: a pinch runner. What a fucking stupid loser. As typical, 870 00:32:47,640 --> 00:32:51,320 Speaker 2: typical fucking mutts. Even the managers they hire are fucking 871 00:32:51,360 --> 00:32:55,640 Speaker 2: bottom feeders. Keep going, yeah, I'll be any of those 872 00:32:55,640 --> 00:32:57,440 Speaker 2: things are true, but keep going, yeah, of course they're not. 873 00:32:57,720 --> 00:33:00,000 Speaker 2: They're truly the cream of the crap. Notice I said 874 00:33:00,080 --> 00:33:02,760 Speaker 2: cream of the crap, not cream of the crop. He's big, folks, 875 00:33:02,840 --> 00:33:05,640 Speaker 2: fuck the MutS. My dad comes in with like the 876 00:33:05,760 --> 00:33:09,280 Speaker 2: offensive garbage, but like, you know, relax, and then he 877 00:33:09,360 --> 00:33:11,760 Speaker 2: just continues, Yes, the offense is anemix. So knowing that 878 00:33:11,800 --> 00:33:14,440 Speaker 2: a good manager will make adjustments, he did nothing. He 879 00:33:14,480 --> 00:33:16,520 Speaker 2: should have replaced Alonzo with a fast runner and tried 880 00:33:16,520 --> 00:33:19,000 Speaker 2: the double steal. You don't need much imagination to try 881 00:33:19,040 --> 00:33:21,400 Speaker 2: something like that. And then he said, oh, I get it. 882 00:33:21,440 --> 00:33:23,479 Speaker 2: Mendoza does not want to be predictable. That is why 883 00:33:23,560 --> 00:33:26,080 Speaker 2: he did not make these changes. The dumb fuck man, 884 00:33:26,160 --> 00:33:29,240 Speaker 2: what the fuck? And an idiot can become a manager. 885 00:33:28,960 --> 00:33:32,760 Speaker 3: These days, that's crazy. I'm like, Nette never taken out 886 00:33:32,760 --> 00:33:34,440 Speaker 3: of Pinch Run. He made the last out of the game. 887 00:33:34,440 --> 00:33:36,760 Speaker 2: Fair and I was just like, I think he probably 888 00:33:36,840 --> 00:33:39,240 Speaker 2: meant winker maybe, but definitely meant winker, which is true. 889 00:33:39,400 --> 00:33:40,760 Speaker 2: He also did get taken out of the game too, 890 00:33:40,760 --> 00:33:44,360 Speaker 2: though for a pinch runner. Yeah, but that's my uncle George. 891 00:33:44,400 --> 00:33:46,800 Speaker 2: Love Uncle George, but these are the takes. He also 892 00:33:46,880 --> 00:33:49,920 Speaker 2: like he's a huge fan of like only batting average. 893 00:33:49,920 --> 00:33:53,000 Speaker 2: He's tell he like, yeah, he was fighting me right 894 00:33:53,000 --> 00:33:55,160 Speaker 2: before the All Star Game. He was like, Nemo and 895 00:33:55,200 --> 00:33:58,280 Speaker 2: Lindor terrible seasons down this year. I can't believe they're 896 00:33:58,280 --> 00:34:00,000 Speaker 2: playing this poorly. I'm like, they're playing the best baby 897 00:34:00,040 --> 00:34:03,080 Speaker 2: spoiled their career by far spaces is gonna have an 898 00:34:03,120 --> 00:34:05,000 Speaker 2: outside chance for a seven win season.

Of course, no one can 953 00:36:10,000 --> 00:36:11,600 Speaker 3: ever just hit home runs and pitches right down the middle. 954 00:36:11,880 --> 00:36:14,239 Speaker 3: And he was like, lmao, Ratio has proved my point. 955 00:36:14,239 --> 00:36:16,040 Speaker 3: And then people were going back and forth about like 956 00:36:16,160 --> 00:36:19,359 Speaker 3: why baseball players being better if they can hit home 957 00:36:19,400 --> 00:36:21,640 Speaker 3: runs on worst pitches, And to me, it was the 958 00:36:21,680 --> 00:36:23,279 Speaker 3: most fucking brain deal argument in the world, because I 959 00:36:23,320 --> 00:36:25,480 Speaker 3: don't understand how you think it's an own to tell 960 00:36:25,520 --> 00:36:28,879 Speaker 3: somebody else that, objectively the best baseball player in the league, 961 00:36:28,880 --> 00:36:29,880 Speaker 3: Aaron Judge is incredible. 962 00:36:29,920 --> 00:36:30,239 Speaker 1: Like there's no. 963 00:36:32,040 --> 00:36:35,320 Speaker 3: He's unbelievable.

They don't really do damage on those pitches. 973 00:36:57,120 --> 00:36:59,120 Speaker 3: No, it just doesn't make sense. I also want to 974 00:36:59,120 --> 00:37:01,240 Speaker 3: do this just to come to back for my buddy 975 00:37:01,239 --> 00:37:03,800 Speaker 3: Thomas because he's fucking great content created, does awesome stuff. 976 00:37:03,840 --> 00:37:05,640 Speaker 3: So it's just like people are like, And then he 977 00:37:05,680 --> 00:37:07,279 Speaker 3: was going through all the pitches and being like, is 978 00:37:07,280 --> 00:37:09,719 Speaker 3: he had the home run yesterday? Aaron Judge on a 979 00:37:09,760 --> 00:37:11,879 Speaker 3: sinker that was like inside, it was off the play 980 00:37:11,920 --> 00:37:13,840 Speaker 3: on his hands and the dude someone was like, what 981 00:37:13,960 --> 00:37:16,080 Speaker 3: about this one? And the dude was like, oh, you 982 00:37:16,120 --> 00:37:18,000 Speaker 3: think this is a good pitch? What do you mean, 983 00:37:18,040 --> 00:37:19,680 Speaker 3: you fucking idiot? Do you know anything about baseball? What 984 00:37:19,760 --> 00:37:21,160 Speaker 3: makes that not a good pitch? What makes that? I 985 00:37:21,200 --> 00:37:22,520 Speaker 3: don't know. It was just it was pissing me the 986 00:37:22,520 --> 00:37:23,880 Speaker 3: fuck off, so I wanted to talk about it. 987 00:37:24,000 --> 00:37:24,960 Speaker 1: Yeah, I caught that one. 988 00:37:24,960 --> 00:37:26,200 Speaker 2: I did not know at the time that it was 989 00:37:26,239 --> 00:37:28,680 Speaker 2: TJ Stats who was getting involved, so shout out, yeah, Jay, 990 00:37:29,040 --> 00:37:31,880 Speaker 2: I listened. I won't fight for the Yankees often, but 991 00:37:31,880 --> 00:37:33,520 Speaker 2: the two things I have been fighting for recently are 992 00:37:33,560 --> 00:37:36,000 Speaker 2: Aaron Judge is sick and was a good trade. 993 00:37:36,200 --> 00:37:38,719 Speaker 3: Yeah, but I'm literally saved their season, like like we 994 00:37:38,800 --> 00:37:41,080 Speaker 3: both predicted. But it was just it was just such 995 00:37:41,080 --> 00:37:42,840 Speaker 3: a brain deal argument where it's like ten people were like, 996 00:37:42,880 --> 00:37:44,759 Speaker 3: here's here's the players hit the most home runs on 997 00:37:44,840 --> 00:37:46,839 Speaker 3: bad pitches, Like I don't want my players swing at 998 00:37:46,840 --> 00:37:49,279 Speaker 3: bad pitches by the baseball players. Yeah. 999 00:37:49,440 --> 00:37:54,560 Speaker 2: Yeah, DraftKings, the Draft Kings media marble. If you live 1000 00:37:54,600 --> 00:37:57,440 Speaker 2: in the states of Illinois, New York, Pennsylvania, or Vermont, 1001 00:37:57,440 --> 00:37:59,320 Speaker 2: which I didn't know Vermont had gambling, that feels like 1002 00:37:59,360 --> 00:38:01,200 Speaker 2: a state that would be so anti gambling. I don't 1003 00:38:01,200 --> 00:38:03,800 Speaker 2: know why, but it feels like they'd hate it. DraftKings 1004 00:38:03,880 --> 00:38:07,080 Speaker 2: is adding a surcharge to subtract from your net winnings 1005 00:38:07,120 --> 00:38:10,680 Speaker 2: to pay their taxes on gambling revenue. States that are 1006 00:38:10,680 --> 00:38:13,759 Speaker 2: twenty percent tax are for gambling companies. So if you 1007 00:38:13,760 --> 00:38:16,759 Speaker 2: live in Illinois, New York, Pennsylvania, or Vermont, you're going like, 1008 00:38:16,840 --> 00:38:18,759 Speaker 2: you're one hundred to win two hundred is now gonna 1009 00:38:18,800 --> 00:38:20,399 Speaker 2: be like one hundred to win one to ninety five 1010 00:38:20,560 --> 00:38:23,040 Speaker 2: sixty or something like that, which is insane. 1011 00:38:23,160 --> 00:38:26,200 Speaker 1: They're they're taxing the winnings. That's bullshit. Yeah. 1012 00:38:26,239 --> 00:38:28,359 Speaker 3: I think I think we've all gotten way too desensitized 1013 00:38:28,360 --> 00:38:30,120 Speaker 3: to gambling over the last few years, just because of 1014 00:38:30,160 --> 00:38:32,120 Speaker 3: how accessible it is. How many ads for it, how 1015 00:38:32,160 --> 00:38:33,880 Speaker 3: much it's a big part of all of our lives. 1016 00:38:34,040 --> 00:38:36,080 Speaker 3: These companies take us and bend us over the barrel 1017 00:38:36,080 --> 00:38:38,399 Speaker 3: and we gamble it the bigs. The bigs that they 1018 00:38:38,480 --> 00:38:41,080 Speaker 3: run would be considered inconceivable to the old days of gambling, 1019 00:38:41,120 --> 00:38:42,080 Speaker 3: like real bookies. 1020 00:38:41,760 --> 00:38:42,359 Speaker 1: And stuff like that. 1021 00:38:42,440 --> 00:38:44,759 Speaker 3: So everyone be careful when you're using these gambling apps. 1022 00:38:44,840 --> 00:38:46,880 Speaker 3: I just I think that it's just ridiculous, how what 1023 00:38:47,000 --> 00:38:48,520 Speaker 3: it is. I think we might look back in fifty 1024 00:38:48,640 --> 00:38:49,960 Speaker 3: years and be like, that was fucked up when there 1025 00:38:49,960 --> 00:38:53,520 Speaker 3: was all this gambling happening for teenage men and early 1026 00:38:53,560 --> 00:38:56,640 Speaker 3: twenties men for all those years. But now, bless you, 1027 00:38:56,760 --> 00:38:59,160 Speaker 3: thank you. I think I think I think it's ridiculous. 1028 00:38:59,160 --> 00:39:00,560 Speaker 3: And the fact that they're doing this and pawning off 1029 00:39:00,600 --> 00:39:02,480 Speaker 3: their own tax bill to their users. Everyone should just 1030 00:39:02,480 --> 00:39:04,640 Speaker 3: stop using that. Fuck yeah, everyone should stop that. And 1031 00:39:04,680 --> 00:39:07,080 Speaker 3: then one more quick medium marble such a way epsom Sorry, 1032 00:39:07,080 --> 00:39:09,040 Speaker 3: it's just all all insane. I got a weird argument 1033 00:39:09,080 --> 00:39:13,080 Speaker 3: people and padres Twitter after the deadline, because yeah, people 1034 00:39:13,120 --> 00:39:16,680 Speaker 3: were so excited about about their trade deadline. WHI or 1035 00:39:16,680 --> 00:39:18,600 Speaker 3: the A J preller are playing really well, everything's coming 1036 00:39:18,600 --> 00:39:20,319 Speaker 3: together for the Padres, and I was I hit someone 1037 00:39:20,360 --> 00:39:21,960 Speaker 3: with like a little tongue in cheek, like, yeah, this 1038 00:39:21,960 --> 00:39:23,680 Speaker 3: team would be great if they had want Solo on it, 1039 00:39:23,840 --> 00:39:25,000 Speaker 3: and so Ione was like, bro, this team would be 1040 00:39:25,040 --> 00:39:26,320 Speaker 3: nowhere if they did make that one so trade. The 1041 00:39:26,400 --> 00:39:28,600 Speaker 3: trade saved the season, and bringing up the fact that 1042 00:39:28,640 --> 00:39:30,359 Speaker 3: Dylan Sees threw no heead of this week, he's been 1043 00:39:30,400 --> 00:39:31,680 Speaker 3: the guy that kind of saved their team, and I 1044 00:39:31,680 --> 00:39:33,680 Speaker 3: was like, you're totally right about that, but you just 1045 00:39:33,719 --> 00:39:35,680 Speaker 3: you only traded one of the starting pitchers you got 1046 00:39:35,680 --> 00:39:38,400 Speaker 3: in that Solo deal to get Dylan Cees, and then 1047 00:39:38,440 --> 00:39:40,799 Speaker 3: just now the trade deadline, you just traded two kind 1048 00:39:40,840 --> 00:39:43,880 Speaker 3: of almost better starting pitching prospects, at least similar starting 1049 00:39:43,920 --> 00:39:46,120 Speaker 3: pitching prospects. However, your rank US three guys, I don't know, 1050 00:39:46,160 --> 00:39:48,040 Speaker 3: probably depends on the front offics you were dealing with 1051 00:39:48,520 --> 00:39:50,759 Speaker 3: into two relievers. And I was like, if you really 1052 00:39:50,800 --> 00:39:53,279 Speaker 3: just traded those guys for Dylan, see, she probably still 1053 00:39:53,280 --> 00:39:54,880 Speaker 3: get Dyllanc's and you could have had one last one 1054 00:39:54,920 --> 00:39:57,200 Speaker 3: last Riote want so though, and this Padres team had 1055 00:39:57,200 --> 00:39:59,359 Speaker 3: won so though and just didn't have Michael King. They're 1056 00:39:59,360 --> 00:40:01,480 Speaker 3: probably they're probably favorite to win the World Series right 1057 00:40:01,440 --> 00:40:03,239 Speaker 3: now at least a favorites from the National League. And 1058 00:40:03,239 --> 00:40:05,560 Speaker 3: this dude was arguing me, saying, I don't agree with you. 1059 00:40:06,200 --> 00:40:09,839 Speaker 3: I actually, I said, He said, you're talking about giving 1060 00:40:09,880 --> 00:40:12,000 Speaker 3: up higher and talent just to acquire seats. You have 1061 00:40:12,080 --> 00:40:14,600 Speaker 3: no more trade chips than acquire Jase Nallam or Tanner Scott. 1062 00:40:14,719 --> 00:40:16,600 Speaker 3: You still have a weak bullpen this point in the season. 1063 00:40:16,880 --> 00:40:18,279 Speaker 3: I said, so with that logic, do you think your 1064 00:40:18,280 --> 00:40:20,000 Speaker 3: team is better right now with Jason Adam and Tanner 1065 00:40:20,040 --> 00:40:22,800 Speaker 3: Scott or want so though? And he said, run prevention 1066 00:40:22,880 --> 00:40:24,680 Speaker 3: is the name of the game. That's always the higher need. 1067 00:40:24,680 --> 00:40:27,040 Speaker 3: I would way rather have those dominant bullpen guys over 1068 00:40:27,080 --> 00:40:29,040 Speaker 3: someone who's great offensively. I was like, that was the 1069 00:40:29,040 --> 00:40:30,680 Speaker 3: stupidest fucking thing I ever heard in my life. That's 1070 00:40:30,680 --> 00:40:32,080 Speaker 3: a that's a that's a stupid person. 1071 00:40:32,160 --> 00:40:32,600 Speaker 1: Take that. 1072 00:40:33,160 --> 00:40:33,960 Speaker 3: I stopped replying. 1073 00:40:34,120 --> 00:40:36,080 Speaker 2: Yeah, No, that's that's when you're like, oh wow, I 1074 00:40:36,120 --> 00:40:38,319 Speaker 2: can't I can't argue with this kind of stupid, Like 1075 00:40:38,920 --> 00:40:41,439 Speaker 2: that's different. Yeahs ask the Mariners how they're feeling about 1076 00:40:41,480 --> 00:40:41,960 Speaker 2: run prevention. 1077 00:40:42,239 --> 00:40:43,280 Speaker 3: Team section is the best. 1078 00:40:43,360 --> 00:40:44,960 Speaker 2: It seems like, holy shit, how do we have the 1079 00:40:44,960 --> 00:40:46,520 Speaker 2: best pitching in the league and we still don't win 1080 00:40:46,560 --> 00:40:48,840 Speaker 2: that many games. We're only five games above five hundred, 1081 00:40:48,920 --> 00:40:50,520 Speaker 2: basically the same record as the Mets. 1082 00:40:50,800 --> 00:40:54,759 Speaker 3: Like, yeah, but with that pitching, because run prevention. Run 1083 00:40:54,800 --> 00:40:56,680 Speaker 3: prevention is the best. But I think it's the end 1084 00:40:56,719 --> 00:40:59,640 Speaker 3: of a soft medium Marvels weird series review. I don't know, guys, 1085 00:40:59,640 --> 00:41:01,719 Speaker 3: just a weird episodes, weird this. This is the dog 1086 00:41:01,840 --> 00:41:04,160 Speaker 3: days of August for podcasters as well. We got to 1087 00:41:04,200 --> 00:41:05,880 Speaker 3: get through this. This is a big time the season 1088 00:41:05,880 --> 00:41:08,479 Speaker 3: for the Mets and we have another weird week ahead 1089 00:41:08,480 --> 00:41:11,520 Speaker 3: because we have a critical, critical, such a fucking important 1090 00:41:11,560 --> 00:41:15,319 Speaker 3: game on Monday five fifteen pm Eastern times, where as 1091 00:41:15,320 --> 00:41:18,560 Speaker 3: it could possibly be against the Saint Louis Cardinals in 1092 00:41:18,600 --> 00:41:21,560 Speaker 3: Saint Louis, a game that was made up baby Andre 1093 00:41:21,680 --> 00:41:24,040 Speaker 3: Plonti or sham and I asof, in a game that 1094 00:41:25,520 --> 00:41:27,239 Speaker 3: one of the most important games Mets have played all season. 1095 00:41:27,280 --> 00:41:27,480 Speaker 1: Truth. 1096 00:41:27,560 --> 00:41:30,120 Speaker 2: Yeah, looking at the standings right now for the wild Card, 1097 00:41:30,239 --> 00:41:33,320 Speaker 2: the Mets are a game out, yeah, one and a 1098 00:41:33,320 --> 00:41:35,520 Speaker 2: half out, a game above the Cardinals. So win here 1099 00:41:35,520 --> 00:41:38,080 Speaker 2: would be pretty pretty huge for the Mets. 1100 00:41:38,760 --> 00:41:40,720 Speaker 3: And this Cardinal team is playing something in that baseball 1101 00:41:40,800 --> 00:41:42,560 Speaker 3: right now as we're recording this, so it's weird. They 1102 00:41:42,640 --> 00:41:44,319 Speaker 3: they're home anyway, so they have to play a game. 1103 00:41:44,360 --> 00:41:46,480 Speaker 3: But this Mets team getting on a plane after the 1104 00:41:46,480 --> 00:41:49,520 Speaker 3: shit Anaheim Series, going to Saint Louis for one day. 1105 00:41:49,560 --> 00:41:51,240 Speaker 3: It's going to be I can't wait to hear everything 1106 00:41:51,320 --> 00:41:53,160 Speaker 3: the reporters and they announce they saying about this stuff, 1107 00:41:53,160 --> 00:41:55,399 Speaker 3: because it's just such a bizarre thing in baseball. People 1108 00:41:55,440 --> 00:41:57,359 Speaker 3: gonna have a lot of shit to say one day 1109 00:41:57,400 --> 00:41:59,720 Speaker 3: before they go to Colorado, where we know things always 1110 00:41:59,719 --> 00:42:02,399 Speaker 3: get fun and super hectic. I don't know it's gonna hapen. 1111 00:42:02,400 --> 00:42:03,640 Speaker 3: I'm at I'm a little nevous this game. I'm a 1112 00:42:03,640 --> 00:42:05,480 Speaker 3: little nervous the next week of this road trip because 1113 00:42:05,600 --> 00:42:08,360 Speaker 3: just it's a tenuous time in the Mets season and 1114 00:42:08,480 --> 00:42:11,719 Speaker 3: is a team that probably objectively has been overperforming for 1115 00:42:11,760 --> 00:42:14,320 Speaker 3: a very long time now. And as we know in baseball, 1116 00:42:14,440 --> 00:42:16,439 Speaker 3: as as it's true in life, while they're always finds 1117 00:42:16,480 --> 00:42:18,399 Speaker 3: this level, you never get too high, you never get 1118 00:42:18,400 --> 00:42:20,240 Speaker 3: too low. You always wind up finding the center. 1119 00:42:20,320 --> 00:42:22,600 Speaker 2: So always gonna be five games above, five hundred five 1120 00:42:22,600 --> 00:42:23,520 Speaker 2: below right in the middle. 1121 00:42:23,880 --> 00:42:26,440 Speaker 3: That's the Mets fucking game. It's very important that the 1122 00:42:26,480 --> 00:42:29,239 Speaker 3: Mets get themselves on the right track in this game 1123 00:42:29,280 --> 00:42:31,560 Speaker 3: on Monday, and then have a big series in Colorado. 1124 00:42:31,760 --> 00:42:36,480 Speaker 2: Yes, because we got win some ball games here. Losing 1125 00:42:36,520 --> 00:42:38,080 Speaker 2: to a three of the Angels changes how this road 1126 00:42:38,080 --> 00:42:40,360 Speaker 2: trip feels a little bit and a lot not not 1127 00:42:40,440 --> 00:42:43,319 Speaker 2: the best start to what can be an annoyingly long 1128 00:42:43,400 --> 00:42:43,839 Speaker 2: road trip. 1129 00:42:44,320 --> 00:42:46,280 Speaker 3: Yeah, and even just looking ahead, we have pitching matchups 1130 00:42:46,280 --> 00:42:49,480 Speaker 3: in this Colorado series, said Ruin overs Kyle Freeland.

Well, no, 1158 00:43:52,000 --> 00:43:53,799 Speaker 2: not the Chaos one. He just got shelled late in 1159 00:43:53,840 --> 00:43:57,319 Speaker 2: the game and then Rodgers two weeks later and got 1160 00:43:57,400 --> 00:43:58,000 Speaker 2: shelled again. 1161 00:43:58,280 --> 00:44:00,440 Speaker 3: All Rightay, so hopell, hope we can see Jeffard this series. 1162 00:44:00,440 --> 00:44:02,279 Speaker 3: But this Rockies team, I mean, we just did it 1163 00:44:02,320 --> 00:44:05,239 Speaker 3: with the Angels. They are fucking bad. They're bad, They're 1164 00:44:05,320 --> 00:44:07,839 Speaker 3: legit bad. They just lost serious to the Padres. They 1165 00:44:08,120 --> 00:44:10,359 Speaker 3: when they're not home, they really can't hit. So now 1166 00:44:10,360 --> 00:44:12,040 Speaker 3: they're going to be home, they will be able to hit. 1167 00:44:12,080 --> 00:44:13,560 Speaker 3: There's a good time for often to try and wake 1168 00:44:13,600 --> 00:44:14,960 Speaker 3: up a little bit, shake off the cob webs. I 1169 00:44:15,000 --> 00:44:18,680 Speaker 3: hate because people always say it fucks up. It fucks 1170 00:44:18,719 --> 00:44:20,520 Speaker 3: you up in Colorado for one thing, but then always 1171 00:44:20,560 --> 00:44:22,239 Speaker 3: fucks you up for the next series as well. I've 1172 00:44:22,280 --> 00:44:24,720 Speaker 3: seen some people do studies about that's why the Rockies 1173 00:44:25,000 --> 00:44:27,120 Speaker 3: can are always so bad, because they're always going into 1174 00:44:27,120 --> 00:44:28,880 Speaker 3: an out of Colorado's they never really on a groove. 1175 00:44:29,280 --> 00:44:32,400 Speaker 3: Fucking sucks that. After we play this Rocky series, we 1176 00:44:32,480 --> 00:44:34,399 Speaker 3: have to go to Seattle and we're facing I think 1177 00:44:34,400 --> 00:44:37,640 Speaker 3: we're facing Kirby. Yeah, right now, we're scheduled to face 1178 00:44:37,640 --> 00:44:40,440 Speaker 3: Bryce Miller, Logan Gilbert, and Luis Castillo. So it's probably 1179 00:44:40,480 --> 00:44:42,719 Speaker 3: three to thirty five best pitchers in baseball. Good run 1180 00:44:42,800 --> 00:44:45,239 Speaker 3: to two of the top fifteen. Yeah, so that's gonna 1181 00:44:45,239 --> 00:44:47,919 Speaker 3: be a tough one. But it's Rocky team again, they're 1182 00:44:47,960 --> 00:44:50,239 Speaker 3: not very good. Zeco Toavar, your boys having a good year. 1183 00:44:51,040 --> 00:44:53,160 Speaker 3: Brenton Doyle is awesome. He had another home run Sunday. 1184 00:44:53,200 --> 00:44:55,439 Speaker 3: The dude's fucking blazing hot right now. He's stupid hot. 1185 00:44:55,719 --> 00:44:57,799 Speaker 3: Ryan McMahon's a good ball player, hasn't been as good 1186 00:44:58,480 --> 00:45:00,120 Speaker 3: you guys, And you guys remember Michael Tolia from when 1187 00:45:00,160 --> 00:45:02,120 Speaker 3: they came to City Field that guy's knowing as hell 1188 00:45:02,239 --> 00:45:05,319 Speaker 3: he's gonna hit if we face the team recently. You 1189 00:45:05,320 --> 00:45:07,600 Speaker 3: guys know how bad they are. They're probably even worse 1190 00:45:07,640 --> 00:45:09,680 Speaker 3: than that shout. We shout him out last time. We'renna 1191 00:45:09,680 --> 00:45:12,319 Speaker 3: shot him out again. Victor Vodnik has some fucking stuff. Mark. 1192 00:45:12,320 --> 00:45:13,920 Speaker 3: Can I spot that guy in the twenty twenty one 1193 00:45:13,920 --> 00:45:17,399 Speaker 3: Arizona Fall League shot two? Yeah, he could throws ninety 1194 00:45:17,400 --> 00:45:19,600 Speaker 3: eight miles an hour. He's probably the first Rockies closer 1195 00:45:19,640 --> 00:45:22,239 Speaker 3: who people have felt kind of good about. Besides I 1196 00:45:22,239 --> 00:45:25,600 Speaker 3: guess Bard for that one season ever, so wow weird. 1197 00:45:25,680 --> 00:45:27,600 Speaker 3: I mean we even like even pre we have pre 1198 00:45:27,760 --> 00:45:29,239 Speaker 3: the Cardinals a little bit too. I guess, I don't know. 1199 00:45:29,360 --> 00:45:31,600 Speaker 1: I don't know. Just watch the game tomorrow. 1200 00:45:31,840 --> 00:45:33,239 Speaker 2: That's kind of That's kind of my vibe with the 1201 00:45:33,239 --> 00:45:35,160 Speaker 2: Cardinals game is like I don't want to pargue it 1202 00:45:35,200 --> 00:45:36,120 Speaker 2: because it just beat him. 1203 00:45:36,520 --> 00:45:37,920 Speaker 3: Yeah, but I gotta say the Cardinals are good. We 1204 00:45:37,920 --> 00:45:40,000 Speaker 3: played the Cardinals last. They're really bad. They've had a 1205 00:45:40,000 --> 00:45:42,080 Speaker 3: similar shape of their season as the Mets, just without 1206 00:45:42,120 --> 00:45:45,040 Speaker 3: any like gay mascots. But they have found a way 1207 00:45:45,040 --> 00:45:46,399 Speaker 3: to be really really good for the last few months. 1208 00:45:46,480 --> 00:45:49,160 Speaker 3: Have to really bad. It May especially Mason wins go 1209 00:45:49,280 --> 00:45:52,000 Speaker 3: ball player. Wilson and Cheris is awesome. Gold Schmidt or 1210 00:45:52,080 --> 00:45:53,799 Speaker 3: out have finally started to wake up a little bit, 1211 00:45:53,920 --> 00:45:56,080 Speaker 3: not to what they once were or think they can be, 1212 00:45:56,160 --> 00:45:59,640 Speaker 3: but they're not dreadful anymore. Tommy fam has walked into 1213 00:45:59,640 --> 00:46:02,000 Speaker 3: the build and change everything, as he does every trade deadline. 1214 00:46:02,040 --> 00:46:05,239 Speaker 3: Coming home Tommy Fam with the Cardinals. Alex Burlson is 1215 00:46:05,239 --> 00:46:07,640 Speaker 3: a fucking awesome ball player. Bren Dome is exactly what 1216 00:46:07,760 --> 00:46:10,440 Speaker 3: he always is. New Bars finding his footing a little bit. 1217 00:46:10,440 --> 00:46:12,399 Speaker 3: It's a good baseball team. So it's it's a good 1218 00:46:12,400 --> 00:46:14,600 Speaker 3: baseball team. It's a really good lineup, it's a pretty 1219 00:46:14,600 --> 00:46:16,560 Speaker 3: good ballpen. It's a bad rotation. You just gotta hit. 1220 00:46:16,560 --> 00:46:17,440 Speaker 3: Andrea Balonte, that's it. 1221 00:46:17,520 --> 00:46:19,480 Speaker 1: Yeah, Andre Polante ground ball king. 1222 00:46:19,520 --> 00:46:20,719 Speaker 3: I think he has a curveball. 1223 00:46:20,760 --> 00:46:22,359 Speaker 2: I think he has like a sixty five percent ground 1224 00:46:22,400 --> 00:46:24,160 Speaker 2: ball rate and a twenty percent k rate, which is 1225 00:46:24,239 --> 00:46:25,240 Speaker 2: kind of shocking. 1226 00:46:25,360 --> 00:46:25,960 Speaker 1: That's insane. 1227 00:46:26,040 --> 00:46:29,279 Speaker 3: That's that's the og Fraanbervaldez method. It's an eighteen percent 1228 00:46:29,360 --> 00:46:31,200 Speaker 3: trick caer a sixty one percent ground ball right, Yeah, 1229 00:46:31,200 --> 00:46:34,080 Speaker 3: that's like shockingly high. Yeah, he's got he's got good 1230 00:46:34,080 --> 00:46:35,719 Speaker 3: curveball and slider though, so I think both to the 1231 00:46:35,760 --> 00:46:37,560 Speaker 3: knuckle curve too. He really spikes it. He gets like 1232 00:46:37,560 --> 00:46:39,239 Speaker 3: his whole hand on that curve ball and just gets 1233 00:46:39,320 --> 00:46:39,920 Speaker 3: right down on it. 1234 00:46:40,000 --> 00:46:41,880 Speaker 1: But he looks like Jeremy Allen White. 1235 00:46:42,160 --> 00:46:44,080 Speaker 3: He does look like Jeremy Allen White a lot. So 1236 00:46:44,239 --> 00:46:46,080 Speaker 3: I just it's just a weird playing one game. It's 1237 00:46:46,080 --> 00:46:48,040 Speaker 3: such an obscure feeling as a baseball fan, like we 1238 00:46:48,080 --> 00:46:50,840 Speaker 3: have one game against this team, just beat the Monday 1239 00:46:50,880 --> 00:46:53,480 Speaker 3: at five A game at five o'clock PM be even 1240 00:46:53,520 --> 00:46:53,840 Speaker 3: weird there. 1241 00:46:54,080 --> 00:46:56,360 Speaker 2: I'd love to be be throwing some stones at the 1242 00:46:56,400 --> 00:46:58,839 Speaker 2: bowl and alley off of Mets win, having some nice 1243 00:46:58,840 --> 00:46:59,560 Speaker 2: ice cold beer. 1244 00:47:00,200 --> 00:47:02,239 Speaker 3: Yeah that's it. Maybe we should a watch this game 1245 00:47:02,239 --> 00:47:04,839 Speaker 3: tomorrow midday, five o'clock. 1246 00:47:05,160 --> 00:47:06,800 Speaker 1: We could do it before we go to the bowling 1247 00:47:06,840 --> 00:47:07,720 Speaker 1: alley before bowling. 1248 00:47:07,760 --> 00:47:10,240 Speaker 3: Yeah, something locally, I guess. 1249 00:47:10,320 --> 00:47:12,400 Speaker 2: Yeah, that's the only problem. All right, let's read some 1250 00:47:12,440 --> 00:47:16,320 Speaker 2: of these reviews, because we do have quite a few. 1251 00:47:17,360 --> 00:47:20,120 Speaker 2: I'm just gonna start from the top here, Jefferson Zell 1252 00:47:20,520 --> 00:47:21,399 Speaker 2: It says South Paul. 1253 00:47:21,560 --> 00:47:22,920 Speaker 1: Guys are giving us some lengthy reviews. 1254 00:47:22,960 --> 00:47:25,279 Speaker 2: Thank you for the five stars, Jefferson, Hey, James and 1255 00:47:25,280 --> 00:47:27,400 Speaker 2: Mark big fan of the podcast here watching for years. 1256 00:47:27,640 --> 00:47:29,560 Speaker 2: Maybe you can bring a fan on the podcast once 1257 00:47:29,600 --> 00:47:31,160 Speaker 2: dot dot dot seems like he wants to come on. 1258 00:47:31,239 --> 00:47:33,040 Speaker 1: Anyway. I want to address one thing about the Mets 1259 00:47:33,040 --> 00:47:33,600 Speaker 1: trade deadline. 1260 00:47:33,600 --> 00:47:35,960 Speaker 2: After DFA and Deakmon and not trading for a lefty reliever, 1261 00:47:36,239 --> 00:47:38,440 Speaker 2: we seemly have no lefty arms in the pen unless 1262 00:47:38,440 --> 00:47:41,040 Speaker 2: Peterson has moved to the pet Even so, we do 1263 00:47:41,120 --> 00:47:43,239 Speaker 2: not have a reliable lefty to get outs in the 1264 00:47:43,239 --> 00:47:45,400 Speaker 2: bullpen coming September. I would not want to see the 1265 00:47:45,480 --> 00:47:47,759 Speaker 2: youngs as are only lefty options. Where are your thoughts 1266 00:47:47,760 --> 00:47:49,680 Speaker 2: on this unspoking issue. I believe it will be a 1267 00:47:49,680 --> 00:47:51,719 Speaker 2: greater cause for concern in the future. I'm gonna let 1268 00:47:51,760 --> 00:47:52,400 Speaker 2: you take this one. 1269 00:47:52,840 --> 00:47:54,920 Speaker 3: Yeah, we've talked about this a little bit in the past, 1270 00:47:55,000 --> 00:47:57,239 Speaker 3: where we don't I don't think having a leftsi is 1271 00:47:57,280 --> 00:48:00,560 Speaker 3: as important these days with the three baud minium rules, 1272 00:48:00,560 --> 00:48:01,920 Speaker 3: because if the left you can't if left he can't 1273 00:48:01,920 --> 00:48:03,719 Speaker 3: get a righty out then, which just it's as bad 1274 00:48:03,719 --> 00:48:06,319 Speaker 3: as having these right these face lefties just winds up 1275 00:48:06,320 --> 00:48:08,680 Speaker 3: being the same. And also the youngs have kind of 1276 00:48:08,760 --> 00:48:11,000 Speaker 3: been that bad. I'm I'm been totally fine with the young. 1277 00:48:11,080 --> 00:48:13,000 Speaker 3: It's funny that both their names are young, which is cool. 1278 00:48:13,000 --> 00:48:16,040 Speaker 3: But I think that Buddo and Brasibon are intended even Maiton, 1279 00:48:16,360 --> 00:48:17,879 Speaker 3: these are guys. I think they're intended to get big 1280 00:48:17,920 --> 00:48:20,600 Speaker 3: lefties out because we talked about Brosobon and Buda with 1281 00:48:20,600 --> 00:48:23,839 Speaker 3: the changeup. Mayiton has the two distinct breaking balls like 1282 00:48:24,160 --> 00:48:26,120 Speaker 3: they Brosbon has the color as well. Like I think 1283 00:48:26,120 --> 00:48:29,040 Speaker 3: these are all pitches and repertoires that are are destined 1284 00:48:29,080 --> 00:48:30,600 Speaker 3: to get lefties out. You though, those guys are not 1285 00:48:30,680 --> 00:48:33,360 Speaker 3: lefties themselves, even standing because he has the tight slider 1286 00:48:33,360 --> 00:48:35,200 Speaker 3: and the split letter, I don't. These are a lot 1287 00:48:35,200 --> 00:48:39,279 Speaker 3: of repertoires that shouldn't really have major platoon splits. Yeah, 1288 00:48:39,280 --> 00:48:40,920 Speaker 3: so I think that's I think that's a good reason 1289 00:48:40,960 --> 00:48:44,080 Speaker 3: why the Mets don't seem that scared about having the 1290 00:48:44,200 --> 00:48:44,799 Speaker 3: lefties in the pen. 1291 00:48:45,000 --> 00:48:47,720 Speaker 2: Got another one here from Mets up Boys five stars, 1292 00:48:47,719 --> 00:48:50,360 Speaker 2: best podcast out there. Love the episode, Mark and James, 1293 00:48:50,520 --> 00:48:52,200 Speaker 2: love the work you guys do. BeFAN you guys, I'm 1294 00:48:52,200 --> 00:48:54,400 Speaker 2: eighteen year old too. I'm eighteen years old too. Well, 1295 00:48:54,400 --> 00:48:57,040 Speaker 2: we're not eighteen years old, but we appeared to be 1296 00:48:57,080 --> 00:48:59,000 Speaker 2: eighteen years old.
